Might be selling these end of the season for some upgraded heads flowing about 350-370.
How much would you be looking to get for those heads?

haven't even thought about it man, I don't even think I'll be able to use the shaft mount Jessels when I switch to the bigger heads, think they will be offset Jessells. Anyway I'll cross that bridge about selling once I get there.

And on that note, I'll humbly just say "I've heard" you can get that with the 215rrs and or the 227s, you'd know better than me bro, is that a crock of kaka?

You can get 350-370 cfm with a 215 rr but it is VERY EXPENSIVE.I just did that.

if i would have known that i would have done it a few years ago! that is incredible! especially with a 23 deg. lt style head. if you are interested i would gladly swap you for a set of 227's and a hogan intake with accessories besides what are you going to do wit hthat much flow on a turbo motor

Illusional,
I hear ya, i called them last year and they had no interest in converting for reverse cooling. and besides i am sure i could have found someone to do it. but i really couldn't drop over 10 large on changing my entire top and and pistons, etc.....

Outlaw,

sorry for stealing the thread

Some how you'll eventually get tired of hearing and seeing videos how well everyone's LT1's are doing and want to get yours back up and running. You know you want to burn a few off at the strip!!!

Nice build Outlaw! Been a while since we have seen you, sounds like you are doing well. Look forward to seeing your beast in action.

Im assuming Lllyod Elliot ported his heads. I only say this on the grounds that he states 'Mine are LE Trick Flows'.....
