LXR is a trade/label name under my company Performance Induction Specialties. LXR is the new trade name of the LS line of cylinder heads that I purchased from ET Performance. I am the original designer of the ETP cylinder heads and want to establish a new name for them being that I wanted it to be a new beginning for the product line after all the turmoil that happened in the past with the delivery/customer service issues. I will continue to work with ETP to supply some of the machining while we currently build up our inventory. Maybe a long answer for your question, but others may have wondered as well. Our new website will be extremely explanitory and is still under construction, if you wish to check out the product line, check out www.etheads.com there are some new or updated products that are not on their website.

thanks,
Cary

Hey Cary, I checked out your link, and your pricing is VERY good on your heads. This may or may not be on topic, but I noticed that you did not carry anything in line of teh L92 heads. Which brings me to my next question. Why is it that the L92 has not really taken off with the heavy hitters? Is it because of the thin deck? Lack of options on adjustable rockers? I mean, with killer flow #'s out of the box, valve sizing, runner CC, this head has lots of potential, or atleast I believe so. You may or may not want to address this here, and I am not meanig to hijack, but was just wondering aloud.

We do work with the L92 heads, stock and our aftermarket creation. They are both an exclusive for Mast Motorsports and have to be purchased through them. They are due to release the 12 degree LS3/L92 head real soon. They will be available in three different configurations.

Cary - a few questions

Does the valve angle make these heads need more or less PTV clearances?

What kind of buyer would you expect of the 4.0"+ bore L92/LS3 heads you've mentioned?

My own setup is LS2 based at the moment, mostly because there are limited tuning resources in the UK and I wanted the car project run in before going upgrading the engine to get what I want from it.
