I have a 04 RCSB with a Lq4. Performance upgrades will include under drive pulley, Pacesetter LTs, Full exhaust, 3000 yank, 4.11s. "Tootall" installed a 226/230 584 591 -112+4 cam and mentioned one of my heads might have a bent valve. Should i get my 317s worked or go with the L92 heads and intake?

 

if you have the funds, get the l92s, but your gonna need heads, intake, and rocker arms. if not in the budget, just have your 317s cleaned up

 

i want to make some n/a power

 

dont we all til we can afford a blower. lol. i prefer turbos. one day i will put mine on

 

Have you thought about 243's or even a stage 2.5 5.3L head? The L92's are a great upgrade, but both the 317 and L92 head are big chamber on a low compression engine. For about the same cost or a little less than the L92 swap you can do a bad *** 243 or re-worked 862 casting and get the compression to well over 10:1 netting similar hp as the L92's with a big gain in torque.

 

could just get ls3 heads. they are small chamber l92s

 

check out Skeet's setup . . .

yah ive read his threads and sent him a pm. thanks for all your help matt

 

Funny cause i just took off the blower,cam,springs it had

wonder if the 2.5 5.3s will be better over some 243s worked

 

They are both 70cc. The compression gain in the LS3 over the L92 is in the piston.
