A matter of opinion I guess. He says the gasket was showing in the chamber and chamber larger than bore I believe. I thought I measured the head when I bought it and found it insignificant. I'll be looking closer when I get them back.

So, it looks like the new combo is going to be:
NEW COMBO PLAN:
LS3 416 13:1, CP Pistons, Mast 265cc LS7, Hi-Ram LS7 and Jessel Rockers. The heads are toss up as Mast has the 255s in stock but not the 265s. Not sure I'll do this, but Frankenstein claims his Mast LS3s are 276cc and no telling what those things flow but he wants $4450 a set
For anyone interested, I'll have my TEA TFS 245s, Crower 1.7 Shaft Mount rockers, and Manton Pushrods, Fast 102 w/Direct Port, for sale, might even make a combo of this stuff.

If you had "Twisted Wedge" heads and Flowmaster 40's on your ride you were difinitely cool! Around here there is still quite a few people that think it fdoesnt get any better than that. Along with the A-Z 303 cam.

I was never a fan of the alphabet cams, but those were good heads. My lawn mower outflowed the stock 5.0 heads.

Our Mast 276cc heads flow 386 on the intake and 266 on the exhaust. The price of $4450 is for a solid roller set up with bigger dual PAC springs. If you want to do the smaller solid roller set up good to .700 lift the cost goes down to $3750

We buy the heads in a raw form and do all our own cnc work, valve job, etc. It takes 7-10 business days for completion once we have the heads. The castings are usually in stock and we can have them in about 5 days.

Update: The final package.
LS3 Block, 4.070" bore, CP Pistons LS7 valve angle, box forged, gas ported, nitrided top ring, Scat Pro-H beam rods, Scat Pro-4340 Crank, Isky Lifters, Jessel 1.7 rockers, Mast LS7 265cc 0.800" lift springs, SLP oil pump, Hi-Ram LS7.
I don't know how this could not make serious power, then again I thought the last engine would too.

With your engine builder's cam, this is your max effective airflow with your heads, since with .600" cam lift, the additional flow up to .800" won't come in to play...... I think the only way his cam 'wins' is if he has a more optimal dynamic compression ratio over the other cams.
BTW....what's the static compression of this engine?

1- The 245 TFs heads still aren't nor weren't the issue why it made no power.
That has obviously been proven seeing the issues found with the old engine
2- 13-1 compression and a mid 240's @050 cam w 600" lift
I think you may be headed for heartbreak again
Good luck though

Interested to see how the new build progresses versus the old troubled one. Any idea why the motor was having issues? I'm hoping my new build has better success than your previous. Subscribed.
