Craig does great work but his prices definatley reflect that...I think the waiting period has got quite long too. If you can get a set of his heads at a reasonalbe price I don't think you will be disappointed. If your paying full market price you can get nearly the same results through other means.

Default GTP Racing Heads

I've Heard some good things about GTP heads has anyone have any feedback on them? They are owned buy david Nicken. Located out by conroe their heads are supossed to flow great up to a .600 lift. I don't think I'll be going that much In my truck. Probably around a .500 lift But if anybody has any info please share. thank you in advance...

I have a set but I have not made it over to pick them up. They are pricey but they are supost to be the best place around. Craig will ask about your aplication and design a set to fit your application best. Or he will do them however you want. He doesn't just go shave a little here and a little there like some people. He also flowes all the heads when he is finished. You get what you pay for.

I have a set on my 383D1 LT1 motor in my Z. So far so good. Can't really say how they compare to other heads because I don't have any dyno numbers to compare them to but they do look to have had a very good port job, valves and coating on them. (I had the exhaust ports, chambers and valves coated on mine)

Craig did my heads and cam on my 98 Z. Car runs like a gorilla even with my more conservative setup, I was doing 390rwhp.

After all of the porting work, new valves, coating with out rockers they were $2850 if I remember right.

I should have dyno numbers on the car by Friday as long as it doesn't blow up on the dyno.

I think if I remember right I ordered them at the end of April and got them in the first of June
