is it worth the money for tfs
currently i have a stock shortblock fresh rebuilt with gt40 iron heads gasket matched they have 1.7rr and i have an e303 cam with the tfs street intake my question is
to put the twisted wedge heads i will have to buy the heads, new roller rockers, pushrods and the total will be about 1600 bucks in ur opinion is it worth that much for the difference between the two heads? how much hp difference should i just keep what i have and put my money elsewhere? and i would like to see if any of you have dyno or track numbers with the trick flow heads

RE: is it worth the money for tfs
As you are now you are prob.making 225rwhp. However, I'm assuming you don't have the Gt-40's on. I like my Twistd Wedge Heads on my car. I would deff. get the TWH. Plus you can sell the GT-40's you already have. Through an automatic and with TrickFlow Twisted Wedges, a TrickFlow Stg-1 cam, a GT-40 intake, and other bolt-ons, I made 271rwhp and 311rwtq. I ran a best quarter of 13.1(in sig), but consistently ran 13.2 at 105.

RE: is it worth the money for tfs
i like my twisted wedges and they have far more potential than the gt40's not that the gt40s are bad u can just make more power with the tw's.
what do u do with the car dd it,track car,?
