I have been running Lloyds heads for a couple years. My first setup went from 12.00's@113mph with a custom cam and stock heades. I sent the heads to Lloyd and put them back on still stock valves in the heads and same cam. The car ran 11.66@117mph on it's first outing with the 3.42's and not dynotuned. Well I broke some main caps on the shortblock while spraying 150HP on it. So, I built a stronger bottomend with a CC306 cam and some bigger valves and went 11.20@120mph N/A and 10.17@134mph on a 200shot leaving easy. Now he just finished a set of fully ported Trickflows for me and the car is a beast even w/o any tuning yet. So you decide if his heads work or not. Later Clint

If you are running an auto you will be fine on the 10bolt. The only thing is if you put lower than 3.42 gears b/c the gears are weaker. I was running the LE1 setup whe I ran 11.66@117mph. Later Clint

The 2 bolts are usually pretty strong but anything can happen. Mine broke 3 main caps in half. I was running a cam with a tight LSA so that makes more cylinder pressure. You should be fine with the Hotcam or anything on a 112. Later
