Default Gtp

Gallant Technical Performance is back in business porting heads for us common folk. That means you have more options available to you that you can trust to do a great job. GTP heads are indeed proven performers. His heads were responsible for getting the first 4th gens into the low 11's/high 10's N/A with a Comp Cams "old tech" 306 cam in the mid 90's.

Yup, wow I remember those back in the day! Didn't they have their own long tubes back in the day as well? IIRC they had a really nice setup. I'll have my heads from Lloyd in the next week or so but it'll be cool to see what GTP will do again, especially with some nice aftermarket castings.

I think all he ever did was port heads and give cam suggestions. I don't think he ever did any custom packages.

Oh, and to answer your question, I am not completely sure Craig still does LTx heads, so probably a good idea to call first.

He fixed some ETP 6 bolt heads for a friend a while back. He never really got out of doing heads, just not so much in the public eye as he was getting work from other business, performance shops, dealers etc. It actually still likes the old LT1 and LT5 stuff still.

Good to hear. I had a set of GTP stage 2 ported LT4's, ported LT4 intake and GTP-6 cam (235 242 112lsa) back in the early 2000's on my 355. Car hauled the mail on pump gas at a heavy 3650 race weight. Craig spent a lot of time on the phone going through the options and goals for my setup.
