Question lloyd elliott

ok iv decided that im going to get my heads done by lloyd elliott as soon as the money will let me. i was wondering out of all u guys that got your heads done by him could tell me some things like,what package did u get, how many cfm's did your heads flow, how much HP gains u got from them, and one of the most important questions, were u happy with them when u got them back and were they as good as u expected. thanks in advance.

and please for all of u guys that want to tell me to go some where else and who u think is better, DONT, this is for lloyd elliot comments and outcomes only. THANKS

I have heard NOTHING bad about this guy, i hear his work is exellent and it can't be beat......i have a link her somewhere..........http://68lt1camaro.proboards44.com/i...4901784&page=1

Theres the link of some pictures of his work and some flow #'s at the bottom. I want some too. Best bet is to just get an extra pair of heads from somewhere and send them in. It might take a while, i hear he is a busy guy!

Good luck!

I also havent heard a single bad thing about him. If i had an lt1 i would go to him for sure. For tech specs i would just email him or go to his site. http://www.eportworks.com/

As soon as i have the funds i would like to have my trickflows ported. I say do it.

I sent mine to lloyd and it took about 6 wks I had him port my intake too. I'm doing a LE2 H/C in a speed inc. 383. I'm in the miliatry so I haven't seen the heads yet. I did alot of research on this and everyone said he can't be beat. Call him and talk to him, he's the coolest guy and knows his stuff.

That works out perfectly then. Replace the gaskets and maybe do a cam to match the heads while they are getting ported. You'll have a while, but it'll be worth it. I'm looking to build up a LT1 before winter so if maybe you can get some hands on those heads that would be awesome. PM me if you can and i'll take them off your hands for $$

Where are you located. I wouldn't mind coughing off 100 bucks or so if they are just laying around. Once i get them, they are going off to get ported. Hopefully by LE but we'll so how the financial situation is. How much is it usually to get heads ported by him??

My heads, cam, and intake were 1600.00 or so including shipping if I remember correctly. Less than 1800.00 I know. Like I said earlier call him and tell him what you want and he can give you all the info you need. Llyod has a insane amount of knowledge and will answer any questions you might have. I called him a couple of times with questions and he did more than answer them. He's awesome. 2fast97z do you have any numbers yet?

I've been sending emails back and forth with Lloyd, and he is very helpful with my limited knowledge. Pretty soon Ill be pulling off the heads, and sending them in.

I have not heard a single bad thing against Lloyd. Everyone that I have heard has been more than pleased with the results.

All you guys with LE packages should post up some vids of your cars.

Typical numbers for a LE2 package are 400rwhp and 380+ ftlbs of TQ. Just had two more guys this week dyno that.
