Yup, you have to do alot of port work to the head so it can flow freely, when we were straight LS we were making around 630ish around 34lbs.

A built cammed up LS head will flow about the same as a Stock Vtec head.

I believe AROD made the most power and went the quickest/fastest with his car.

Just make sure you change out the stock values to ferria values or you'll be breaking rockers all the time.

How would a valve cause a rocker to break?

Cuz the stock values have a flat top and the ferria values have rounded tops, so its not as hard of a hit for the rockers
