This is pretty cool. I'm sure a bunch of people are still looking to hear some flow numbers for their "As Cast" GenX heads.

Just sayin...

My "As-Cast" TFS 215's flowed better than that, however they were milled to 59cc combustion chambers. I will hopefully have the car together before too much longer. It's getting race season, track opens Saturday here.

Care to post your #'s? I've got a pair with 60cc chambers en route.

I have a pushrod question for TFS.

I believe the TFS heads use a little bit longer pushrod. I have also read that Spintron testing has been showing the 5/16" pushrods (any head) have quite a bit of flex (several test sites have reported this). Has TFS ever considered fabricating an LSx specific tapered pushrod in lengths say from 7.300" to 7.500" (0.025 increments) that would help minimize the pushrod deflection yet still fit within the stock head without machining?

PS: Welcome as a sponsor.

Is this the 215cc cnc ported heads? I did find one site that said they flowed 320cfm @.600 lift and 306 at .500 lift. Was this wrong?

This is what I pulled off of summit racings web site. I will be using these heads milled to 61cc and a 232/236-642/612-114LSA cam. Allan @ futrals says the car should be making around 575 to the flywheel. Does seem about right?
