Picking out heads
I'm trying to decide between two sets of heads. I'm looking at Loyd Elliot heads with a LE cam or would a set of trick flow heads be better for this Lq block of mine.

Yes I plan on doing a fairly large blower. Planning on trying to keep this motor with some bit of street manors. Mostly strip with a bit of street.

Make sure you get the head with the thickest deck casting. Other than that, IDK LS stuff.

What would be the benefits of a thick deck casting....the only thing I can think of is volume.

On a 4 bolt block you need something with a thick deck height. As far as factory heads go the LSA heads have the thickest deck being a factory boost head, which is what I run on my car. If you want to spend some money, the Trick Flow GenX 255s are a great boost head

Awesome thanks man I'll look into them. I'll be getting the bottom end completed come June.
