aaaaahhh!! so much info here.
I know everyone is going to like what they have.
I wish there was some independent testing done.
if I get those afrs I'll be on my stock ls2 manifold.. that is going to choke a lot of power i presume??
I've spent hours..days.. almost a month researching heads and all I get is that people like what they have..![Barf](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_barf.gif)
I still have no idea what I'm going to go with.

ya too bad ls2portworks closed they ported them for 250 and results werent bad but sell that ls2 for 150-200 and buy a set of heads you want you cant go wrong with prc or patriot afr's arnt worth the mony imo if you cant spand an extra 500-100 to have someone port them more my buddy cunfuzed has prc stage III and made 555 N/A through a 6 speed
but L92's are the best for a cheap budget

and the l92 thing... I hear they are great flowing heads but you have to go to an l76 intake. which I hear is extremely constrictive..

the L76 flows about the same as the fast 90 unported both around 300cfm and fast is coming out with a new intake LSXR 102mm you can use a 90,92,95mm or you can go carb style intake or expensive sheetmetal ![Happy](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_stretch.gif)

Sean welcome to the ls1tech board. Glad you've chosen us for your short-block & I'd be more than happy to help you select a cylinder head. We're working on finishing up our new engine dyno facility & I'd be more than happy to work with you to get that short-block you purchased on the dyno for some cylinder head testing. We have a open dyno policy, we're always willing to help test products & compare products with the customer. That's the best way for us to keep on top of the market & make sure we build the best possible products. If you'd like to come down we can see about setting up your short-block on the dyno & testing it with a few different cylinder head combinations. A little bit of testing never hurts! We bought this dyno & built the room for just this type of situation, there's absolutely no better way to compare than on the same motor, same day, one change at a time!!

I'd seriously look into an L92/L76 combo. You can have CNC heads with .650 valve springs and manley valves for $800 from SDPC, then another $400 for LS3 intake, fuel rail, and injectors (more than enough for your setup). With a proper cam spec'ed to it, it should be right at 500rwhp with supporting mods, all for $1200. Add the price of a good set of LS6 heads, TFS, AFR, PRC and the cost of a 90/90 and the cost of new injectors....you'd be saving a ton of money. Plus, you'll be using a cam with less overlap than a cam you'd need to make the same power from other heads. Driveability will be TONS better than the other heads. Now granted your power may be down 20-30 hp, but you'd save will over a couple of grand, and have stock-like drivability.

Sorry to hear we cant get together on the dyno & test them all for you. Let us know if we can help in any way! If you want to discuss the combo & possible options just give me a call!
