Mike, I think that guy ended up switching to a custom grind from MHS. I will find what his cam specs are.

Bullet Cam custom ground by Nick - 233/237 .550/.540 111 LSA is the cam the guy 01GT4.6 linked about and he made around 350/340 with the stock intake. The guy has recently added a TFS intake and dropped the compression to get ready for boost. Not sure what his numbers are currently.

Yea, i couldnt stand to read the whole thing but it seemed like he was still trying things out a few months ago and never really had anything set yet.

Porting the TFS heads doesn't yeild much gain. If almost any. The heads aren't built for a stock bottom end. These heads need to be revved above 6500 rpms and need a lot of flow meaning new cai new tb and plenum and a new intake manifold because that becomes the bottle neck on the build. Not trying to bust your bubble either and I love the new TFS heads.

Explain why you say this because I have to completely disagree with you.

Its a valid question. But let me first start by saying that the amount of materials that you have to work with is less than 1mm which is nothing. You are going to pay $500 for gains of less than 10 CFM. Do you know how much 10 CFM is? Its not much. Thats good for 5 RWHP.. Big whoop. These heads are not like our stock PI heads when porting yields over 50 CFM. These heads are basically MAXED out from the box. They are meant to give the ultimate performance straight from the box, and that was what Trick Flow delivered..
