Trick flow is best for the money. $2200 gets twisted wedge heads, roller rockers, cam, trick flow intake, valve covers, timing chain, head bolts, and gaskets, usually gets around 280-300 rear wheel horse, most don't get 300 though but can be done

I have proved time and time again, that the TFS kit isnt worth the $2200 people throw at it..

better results can be had for $1600
