Will L92 heads fit? Has anybody else noticed that L92 head threads are almost as numerous in here as "what cam should I use G5X3 or MS4" threads are in the LS1-LS6 section? NO offense to those thread starters, cuz I know that the search button don't always work. Just an observation....
Seriously if you think thats bad go to the gear section and read all the posts in there.... will my 10 bolt last can I build my own 9 inch? will the 12 bolt work... why are my gears noisy....
like any other tech site, alot of it is the same things over and over...
for example, on another site i frequent, you'll see a million posts asking how to land a double.
IMO, if you have to ask on the Internet, you shouldn't be jumping doubles yet. LOL.
EDIT:
double refering to jumping on a dirtbike.. LOL. i guess thats what happens when you jump back and forth between forums.

well alot of people dont understand "bore sizes" and things like that. they just see a killer flowing head and a good price and need to know if it will work. you start throwing figures at them and its like chinese arithmatic to them....

A cam for the L92 heads???
I would suggest not going with a LS1 based cam.
The size and flow difference between the intake and exhaust ports for a L92 head are closer to the LS7's design then they are a LS1.
A quick read up will tell you a large variance between the intake duration and exhaust duration makes the LS7 head produce the most power (something like 25 to 30). Something along the lines of a 228 intake and a 243 exhaust would probably be a good start.
The L92 head has a massive amount of flow/volume and medium velocity on the intake, where the exhaust is medium flow with a high velocity (well that is how I look at it).
Making people read the stickies before posting... that would take the fun out of the noobs.

L92 heads made the LS1 obsolete. when you can buy stock L92 heads for 800 bucks that flow better than $1200 ported 243s there is an issue... im mad i have an LS1 now, i want a 4.00 inch bore
