Asking for one that does the best is asking for trouble because you will have happy customers from a number of vendors all swearing the shop they choose is best.
That said I went with www.advancedinduction.com and am very happy. I also think where you find standout cars their name will keep coming up.

I agree with 96cap. I'm intrested in hearing some names of guys who arent big on the net but big around the local tracks. Some people assume that if it isnt Lloyd or AI it isnt good but there were guys doing SBC heads long before them I figure.

Thanks guys. I know that fbodymotorsports.com will sell you a set with trade in of course for around 1700 with your choice of comp cam included...the only thing is the intake runner is only 195cc after porting, but they use cnc porting and they CLAIM more power than up to 20 percent larger intake runners...thanks again in advance for any advice...I know a lot about old chevy, but this is my first adventure into LT1...MM

How much are you guys paying for the port pro heads ?? I want a decent set of LT1 heads i guess similar to LE2 or 3 but i dont want any extra stuff i just want the port and polish and the bigger valves i can put the heads together myself..

That is pretty much where I was going with my first post.
Metal Maniac, don't get hungup on port size, if you do insist on believing bigger is better there though by all means go with a huge set of AFRs or something so we can laugh when it is turd.
Also I would say 11:1 is low, am running 11.5 on the heads/cam with stock shortblock
