really?

go on youtube and find a car with p heads and then find a car with tfs heads and see what they run in the 1/4 and 1/8 mile....

you proly look at that answer and think its a joke... there is no way to compare 2 different cars 2 different times to eachother espically when the supporting mods matter just as much as the heads themselves......

well thats excactly how we see your question.

a legit question would be what is the difference in flow numbers a xxx lift..

So as I see this I'm thinking how hard of a post/question is it? I don't know which way to go keep my p heads or tw and I thought hmmmmm ill get a quick poll like response to HELP me.OK let me somehow make this easy, do you have a 5.0L with Tw or P heads? Ok then post ur numbers with a brief summary? DONE I don't care how its read I just want times and what head cam ect. i'll sort out the rest and ask question if needed. I'm not trying to be a dick, but was I really getting questioned about my question?

What a tard! Know who you're talking to before you talk that way. That man (Sean) has way more knowledge than you can injest. WOW! Maybe read a little while you're at it too. A thread other than you're own.

While e3sean said it best, I'll re-emphasize. This isn't a magazine test. PERIOD. You can't just swap one part out and find the potential of that part...I've seen P head combos run better than Trick Flow combos because of the better supporting mods.

And I completely understand that. But show me the money........... Tell me what you have and what it runs (gt-40p and TW) how hard is that? Exactly what Horsepowerjunkie did. It wasnt hard for him to do? Jump all over me because I asked a question and ur boy said really?????? Yeah really if I asked it then YEAH. I'm sure he does know alot. I never said he didn't. I don't and thats why I am here, thats why I asked. But I know enough to know if I see alot of the same set ups running good numbers.......... If it looks like a duck and swims like a duck and quacks like a duck......... And for faststang91lx to call me a tard? lol Are we in highschool again? Are you guys that bored that you have to try to be all high and mighty? I put my pants on one leg at a time just like you do. Sorry I bugged you master, Sorry I posted on YOUR forum that you own. Just close this thread please your honor and delete my account please. F this its not worth it

damn chill out man what. just like freaked out. basically he is saying every car is different. you can not compare 2 different sets of heads on 2 different motor combos. PERIOD. The ones with better flowing numbers with the mods supporting them will produce more power. there is the answer.

here ya go.. like i said go on youtube

look up e3sean.. i have several videos.

i have one when i had my first setup with a set of p heads it ran like 12.60 in the 1/4

now i have trickflow heads on my car and it runs 10.0 9.5 on a 100 shot.

granted i also went from 10.5:1 compression to 14.5:1 compression changed it from a manual to an automatic, went from a stock block 347 to a dart block 363 lost about 300 lbs of weight went from a 600 lift street cam to over 800 lift full race cam. spinning 2000 more rpms's


but none of that matters..

i got your pm and i am not angry in the least bit but we cannot give you an answer that will mean anything at all.

if the only veriable that changed were the heads i am sure the trickflows will outperform the pheads in any situation if they were both untouched. but the versilitity of the t/w heads are far greater then a phead.it comes down to air flow. an engine is no more then a large air pump. the more air you can get in and out the more power it will produce.

Sean, when you had the 347 in with the trick flow intake and heads, what was your full setup? I read you said it ran 11.30 N/A.

Ok, maybe I didn't explain myself the best. I'm talking about a stock bottom end. So if u had a street/strip car with stock bottom end and you have ran p heads or put a set of tw heads on it what did you do? I know things make a difference but to narrow it down stock short block. It someone says: yeah I have a stock 5.0L with a set of p heads, a c4, 4.10, LT headers, 650carb and e cam that runs 13.0 on slicks or street tires............or then I bought a set of tw heads and took off the p's now it runs...... thats all I was asking for so I guess my fault for not wording/explainging myself right. And maybe I was on my monthly........ Its winter time we all have our monents lol

This one is results not typical, and it was a 11.998 or some shit. So basically a 12 flat. Most people are lucky to hang in the 12.5's with this combo. Plus, there is no way of knowing EXACTLY to a t what all was done to the car/motor. If there was any trick shit, I'm sure it would never have been mentioned. I'd chalk this one up as a Hail Mary pass!

Most likely a hail Mary pass and that fucker can drive. Typical results would be 12.5 as you said

I just don't want you to get people's hopes up without knowing ALL the facts. Spend a little time plugging numbers into a et calculator. You'll see what I mean.
