I was thinking about these heads but don't know if they will work. Has anybody used them on there lt1 and how do they work. Also what other heads would you recommend.

 

Trickflow heads for an LT1? Are you sure they make these?

I dont' know that is why I was asking. They would be pretty cool if they do.

 

they made a very limited supply

 

I thought they only made them for the L98?

 

Trick Flow made a few sets of LT1 heads, they didn't work real well and they stopped producing them. Now, I hear they are going to start producing them again. No one knows how good they will be at this point. But as of now, here's the lowdown on LT1 heads. For most uses, a set of ported stock castings is the best choice. Blower cars can benefit from the large chambers available on AFR's heads. For really wild combos (NA or blower), the AFR "race" heads with larger intake ports 210, 220cc's and up are the way to go. AFR's require additional porting to flow well.

For really wild combos, traditional gen I SBC heads can be adapted to an LT1 block. Personally, this doesn't make too much sense to me. But the way to build an "ultimate" LT1 would be through this route.
