I am looking around trying to decide what high performance head would be the best to put into my VIII. I have many many mods that consist of 2.3L Stroker kit, HKS 272 cams both intake and exhaust, HKS adjustable cam gears, 760 injectors, XS engineering oversized intercooler, FP Green stock appearing turbocharger running on 25psi, turbo back exhaust, skunk 2 intake manifold, plus some other things Built and tuned by English Racing. I'm at 397.3 awhp and 368.35 awtq. I'm looking around right now and the Cosworth ported head is at the top of my list and next in line is the English Racing ported head, is there any others that I may be missing or am overlooking. I need any and all suggestions no matter the price range to give me a good idea of the spectrum and options for the ported heads. Thanks to all.

 

did you ask english racing? they probably ran and tuned more heads than most of the guys who will give you an opinion. for the price I would cross the cosworth out of your list.

 

Yeah, the Cosworth head is overrated and way overpriced. Of the two heads that you mentioned I would definitely opt for ER. I am pretty sure that I read that the Cosworth's flow numbers were relatively mediocre.

Incidentally, which version of the FP Green turbo are you running on your car?

 

You may also want to look at the Headway Performance CNC Evo head. This head has been proven to significantly outflow the Cosworth head on a flowbench.

A lot of ultrafast race Evos run the BR Stage III head.

 

I'm running an old style FP Green :/. Wanna move up to an FP 3586 but that will come in due time. Wanna go for a better head first. Where sells that other ported head that you were talking about?
