ls7 heads Different chamber and port design. wet flow characteristics. The aftermarket LS7 heads, PI and All Pro, I have seen hands down put up 30 more hp than a ported stock LS7 head even when the flow numbers were close to the same.

The advantage now is the new All Pro -2 Race head. We're just finishing up an intake program that will produce 435cfm @ .800" lift. It's on a factory 12º angle and the valves share the same guide spacing as the stock LS7 heads. Valve sizes are 2.250"/1.625". It's designed for large displacement race applications. An excellent choice for classes requiring stock valve angles 
Price and availability will start at the end of the month.

Are you saying that a well ported LS7 will never be as good as the PI and all Pro ones no matter how good they have been ported?

I have that cam in my 440, it not bad at all. If your plans are to go with these new heads, then you might be better off getting a custom one made for your application. Or better yet, go with Solid Roller cam.

I am sure the striker would be a good choice, but with such high tech heads, i would be more tempted to do a solid roller for the extra rpm stability and power. Another option would be the new LSR profiles by CCams.
Btw, whats your ultimate goal?

Which LSR grind did you have? Do you have power numbers for both? You said had them, what do you have now?

Yep, had the Striker in and now i moved on to a custom grind LSR. The Striker had huge top end power from 3500 rpm up and a little lacking in torque at lower rpm's. My custom grind LSR gained almost 20 lbs of torque at peak but lost 10 rwhp at the top end. The drivability is no comparison as the LSR grind is very tame, both have/had great tunes with both in the 110/111 LSA respectively. This is through a 4L60e mind you so this comparison "is what it is". At 2000 rpm's the LSR grind is already at 425 fbls. at the wheel so you be the judge. I really do miss the crazy top end of the Striker when i'm at the track, the thing is brutal!
