Ive been reading alot of results with them and i think the stage 2 with 2.02/1.57 valves milled to 59cc and a .040 gasket would be the best for my mods. Would i have a problem PTV clearance????? Cam im running is 228R - 112!! I just sent the money on a LS6 intake over on tech so ill have that too. Also with the 2 mods mentioned what kind of gains am i looking to see HP/TQ and 1/4. Hopefully i still have enough of money left from taxes to help buy the heads.

what do the Pat LS6 heads flow at? the l92 seem to be a very nice head for being out of the box? but I have yet to see some impressive numbers from them ... e/t wise?

thats why I say the patriot heads that txsilverado is running, only BECAUSE its a proven combo.... if and ESCB LS1 running 12.2 n/a aint impressive, then I dont know what is..

Yah not quite sure, yes no doubt impressive. I am trying to find flow charts. I am looking at the prc heads that TSP has for 1100$, plus 50rwhp to the wheels, sounds good for the cake...

Ok I'm done jacking the thread.

unless you have a 4" or bigger bore L92 are not an option. For anything less than 4" bore the LS6 heads are hard to beat for the money.
