TFS 245's or ET 255

I was wondering what results people have had with the TFS 245 or ET 265heads on big cube engines ? if you have them post your combo and any times ? I am primarly interested in hydraulic roller applications ?

I have done engines that are mid nine second hydraulic roller pump gas deals with both. The ETP can go wilder with bigger spring pockets and more installed height as delivered so you can run some conventional springs too big for normal LSx type heads but both can make similar power as is. The TFS is always available and they have the best lead time if that matters as well. I love them both.

I also run more pressure than most on the L92 heads and the LS7 with stainless valve to compensate for the extra valve weight. Most springs are designed around a 2.05 or 2.08 valve and the L92 uses larger and the LS7 uses a +.100 long also ?
