What I want to know is if they are so good how come the aftermarket head casters never built a head with similar specifications!? I guess they may be followers and not leaders.

Yeah and the lack of supporting parts. Why make a head that can't be installed by the average guy? Look at the odd ball heads out there and how much they sell, it's market driven and there is no market when the parts aren't out there. This is just the begining of the life cycle for these heads, it's either going to be long if they work or short if they don't.

Have you seen the All Pro LSW 12º head? They've been working on the design for over two years. It's a bit closer to the LS7 heads than L92's, but it will fit on 4.0" bore LS2's.

with the L92 heads it seems you can only run the L76 intake as of right now. really depends on how good the heads are. it's still in the air whether they sink or swim. If they get to be a popular option you'll be seeing intakes popping up all over the place for them.

The L76 intake is available for the L92 heads. I just got mine in Monday. There are a few that have them already. A month back, they were very limited. I believe GM is soon to release the carb version.
