dumb question, but are the valves always replaced for larger valves with a port job? im just wondering if I'd be losing my sodium filled valves and lose some high rpm capabilities...

TEA is a very good shop they have our LS6 243 heads right now. I personally dont care about HP Dyno Numbers. If you have 500 HP and you run a 12.5 in the 1/4 mile something is wrong.

I have been told that tfs215s with 238/242 605/610 at 103lsa with fast 90 and headers, loudmouth, 160 stat, underdrive pulley and lid good for 480 to the wheels on stalled auto. Sound about right to yall?
I run the Stage III cam right now and am saving for the 215's, It is very well mannered and A Torquey bastard imo for its size! I kinda wanted to port my 241's and ls6 but might cost almost as much as 1 head so I'm trying to hold off and save for a 90/90 & Trickflows

If your going to mix and match you had better do a bunch of research. You just cant throw a bunch of parts together and expect the same results.
What I know of TFS and TEA is that they use a different flow bench which produces big numbers but is not the same as say AFR or someone else. Its like a dynojet compared to a mustang dyno. One gives easy big numbers the other is more indicative of real world power and flow. Also when they advertise, they advertise engine dyno numbers and not chassis dyno numbers and they use thier own dyno or friends dyno. Big difference in the end results.
Best way it to keep asking questions and keep researching. It took me 3 months or research and questions before I made my first cam purchase.
more importantly, get a cam that matches the heads. like lots of guys are saying in this thread, its all about combos. cams can be spec'd to do whatever you want your car to do!!!
im purchasing some prc stage 2.5 243s right now, and will get a cam spec'd to me. but then again my goal is only about 430 to the wheels, ill let the bottle do the rest....for now...
