Default Trickflow heads on a LS2?

Has anyone put some Trickflow heads on LS2's yet? I've done some searching, but couldn't find any They are putting down some sick rwhp #'s down with LS1/LS6's. I'm just wondering if that bigger bore might be worth some extra ponies because of less valve shrouding.

They were tested by GMHP against the afr, dart, edelbrock, LM stage II and LM stage III heads.
All things considered they did pretty good.

There are a few LS2 cars running around right now making over 500rwhp w/ TFS heads and all the supporting hardware.

This guy made 506 RWHP with the TFS 225's on a LS2, even compared his results to some $2000+ LPE heads.

Still looking and searching away myself. The main thing is I want to pick something to take advantage of the heads capabilities but still dont want to be a total handfull in traffic even with the minimum bumper to bumper I will ever see, otherwise I would have just ordered a less expensive or more economical set and smaller grind. I know the tuning will come in huge and this is where we will be extra patient.
