Default Heads

Posted on camaro5 but those guys haven't really responded much. So here it goes. I have LS3 with cam, bolt ons and 410s with TruTrac. Next thing is heads. Was wondering best way to go money performance etc. I've seen I max package deal that puts down impressive numbers with LS7 heads, intake, E85 injection, etc. Package deal great numbers. I heard good and bad bout PRC 260 heads not a bad price but not for sure of results. So let the convo start. What heads are yall running? What kinda of results? What opinions if you have done some research or if you want to just chime in. Oh car made 474 rwhp

Be prepared to get yelled at for posting this on a Corvette Forum. I can't tell from experience, but AFR might have something that would interest you.

I'm ok with you posting whatever you want and I have a Z28 myself, but it doesn't seem like other people share my sentiments. It sound like you have an interesting project going there.

Mild package (well....lets call it middle of the road but still very user friendy). Check out the results in the thread I attached below

https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...-included.html

You will never achieve these kinds of number with a milder HR grind with ported OEM heads or even budget aftermarket heads either for that matter.

We should be back on the dyno with the new clutch soon and finally able to get after the tune a bit more (OEM clutch was slipping so we didnt have the opportunity last time)

Im confident we will clear 550 RWHP. If your interested in something like this or would like to discuss anything else feel free to reach out.



Cheers,
Tony
