Default cylinder heads

i know everyone talks about lloyd elliot and advanced induction, but has anyone used or heard anything about total engine airflow. they have a cnc program for lt1 heads. i just was trying to shop around before i dump some cash. I think it was $1369 for their stage 2 heads fully assembled.

Comparing the exhaust numbers @ .300"-.600" on their "Stage II" offering to AI's 190cc, I'd say they're using a pipe on the exhaust side for the flow numbers they're advertising, but lots of LTx folks have used them with good results. For the $1350.00-$1400.00 price point, I'd still pick AI...

agreed........keep in mind flow numbers are as much a marketing tool as they are a measument of the heads performance........flow numbers arent everything....

I definetly agree about ai, i was just curious about what else is out there. I'm totally new to lt1's, ive personally built many supercharged five liter mustangs and that market is totally different. there arent nearly as many parts suppliers for lt1's, ive learned its cheaper to ask those who have had success. thanks!
