Anyone running dss full port plus heads? I was wondering if I should use them or another brand or have my own PI's ported. Any help would be appreciated, thanks guys.

I have heard some bad things about their short blocks nothing really on their heads. MPH has some great heads and so does VT Engines.

I checked them out but I guess I have to call them not much info on there sites about the different stages. They just list flow numbers nothing about bowl work or anything else. I might just have them hand ported here in PA. Thanks

I know someone selling DSS heads. I don't think he had any problems but I'll ask.

Stockers. I just upgraded the valve springs and installed the VT Stage 2 Blower cams. I only want 500ish rwhp and I can get there with stock heads easily. Im already at 440rwhp so when I add an extra 10lbs of boost I should I should be at where I want to be. Didnt see the point of dropping another 1500+ on heads when I can get there with the stock ones.

Did you really mean it will take an extra 10lbs of boost to go from 440 rwhp to 500 rwhp?
