Default Ordered my TEA/TFS 225cc heads!!!!!

I ordered my heads last week. I went with a 68cc head w/ Harland Sharps RR and a .045 gasket. That puts me at 11.8 comp. with -2cc flat top piston that comes 4 out of the hole. My cam is a 244/248..612/615..112LSA and I have all the other goodies like KOOK 1 7/8 LT 3inch true duels w/ X pipe, and FAST 90/90. Couple of ?'s . Will the Harland's fit under stock valve covers and if not how to get them to work? Will my Comp. and DCR be good for a N/A street car? What does everybody think I will make at the rwhp thru a 6spd?

No the 90/intake is not ported. I hope its going to be nuts. These heads should make killer peak #'s, but should make killer #'s through the whole curve. The mid flow #'s are good on the heads. Will will see soon.

The sad thing is I still have a 10 bolt. The 12 bolt is next on the list. I hoping for 550rwhp range. May I ask what spec or round about size cam did you go with?

Your heads are about ready to go, and we got the new TFS 235's on the flow bench today, they are REAL good for a little 2.08 valve on a 4.125 bore, numbers are coming. I may try to flow them on a 4.060 bore tomorrow.

Very curious to see how they will flow on a 4.060. I'll need to order some heads in the next month or 2, and would love to go 235's if they will still keep the velocity up.
