well I dont believe hes right, because plenty of guys n here use the TWheads with stock pistons, and that would be the only part of the kit that would interfere with the psitons...

Ok, it comes with 1.6 nevermind. Civiceater, when are you going to install it?? Can you use the stock lifters since the kit don't come with new ones? Thanks.

To shed a little light on this subject, I have a friend that has this combo on his car. Everything mentioned in the kit minus the Intake, he is running the cobra intake and let me tell you it sounds NASTY. As far as horsepower is concerned, i dont know though, he has yet to get everything broken in and is fighting an idle problem right now. Also this is on a 130k stock shortblock, but ill guess its gonna hit 300hp if not very close on the chassis dyno. One thing though, the valve covers that come with the kit do not have an oil fill hole. Your gonna have to drill.

the stock pistons work with the twisted wedge heads, but any aftermarket pistons that you may buy, have to be ordered for twisted wedge heads. The intake valve is set at a different angle..so the valve depressions on the pistons are in a different location.

my roomate made 315 to the wheels with the same mods as me and only difference being trick flow heads.

I say get the kit

its a great deal.

trick flows are a 170cc runner volume as aposed to the 165 of the afrs.
they outflow the afrs until .600 on the intake...... which doesnt matter, you wont have a .550+ cam...
but of course with the larger runner volume and 2.02 valve might give less velocity... then again, they have a swirl fast burn chamber. Trick flows are a darn good head. and very good with a nice cam.... which will need flycutting

they are just behind the AFRs on the exhaust flow.

get the kit

i would think the a-trim would be to small for this kit but probly around 450ish and a S trim or a novi 2000 would make 500+rwhp with this kit easy but your going to need a beefy bottom end

I've been looking at this kit for sometime now. Too bad i won't have the $$ till fall at the earliest.

Maybe i should get the summit card and not worry about interest for a year.
