The website is pretty cool. You can build a crate engine and then check the published Torque and Horsepower for that configuration. According to the website. By just adding the heads and manifold to a stock LS2 the dyno chart shows a peak horsepower rating of 440 at 5800 RPM. Sounds good to me!
good find!

Roger @ H-P Sales has told me about seeing these heads w/ CNC port job, etc. done by Livernois. They were at the show in Orlando. Tried to contact them (Rog also tried), but they seem to be closed this week. Maybe Tuesday, after New Years will get some answers.

Talked about these yesterday with Rick at Synergy whos already tuned a set on a 408 block with good results, but he felt the amount of valve shrouding you would have would really kill their potential on the stock bore LS2. Would liek to see some results but think I'll hold off on these till I bore it out

The L92 heads are fitted on 6 litre 4" bore engines from the factory "down under", we dropped a tiny little 224 @ 0.050 camshaft (with exhaust and intake mods) in one of these a few weeks ago and the thing picked up 70hp at the wheels!!

You have to use the L76 intake, so we can assume that was in place.
