h/c/i ls3 results.
Picked up the car from Vengeance just been a little busy. Any way totally happy with results in power. Now just need to save a little to spray it. Lol
before mods was: spinmonster cam, lg long tubes, no cats, fast, bb catback, and halltech 107 cai. Car made 474whp and 442wtq.
Added: TF 255 heads milled to 64cc, monster stage 3 clutch w/ lighter flywheel, and nw 102 tb. Resulting in 512whp 472wtq.
Car made more power all way through power band. Some people worried I would lose mid range.

Idles is great. You can tell its got a cam just not huge loop sound. Driving is perfect. No bucking or surging from setup. I will get a vid up of idle.

Cause designed for ls3 and ls7. Plus flow numbers. Also vengeance recommend and so did few guys with n/a builds. We have to do pushrods, I bought heads with new valves etc. . But did keep my stock rockers.

The reason I asked about the valves is that I have read the TF valves are noticeably heavier than stock LS3 valves.
I was considering WCCH heads, but the TF 255's look great and you are making outstanding power with them.

Yes it made great power. And even with not a wild cam. Go bigger cam and no reason it couldn't make 520-530whp and get close to 500wtq. Only down side then is driveablity with a huge cam.
