I recently used racing fuel in my vehicle just to see if it made any difference (yes I am a newbie to the site though I've owned my Ty since 1993). It is simply amazing how the engine responds. It runs better, not as hot, and the performance is increased. Unfortunately, the price is quite...

Re: Should I go for Vortec Heads? Your Opinions will really help! Why is that? I know that there are plenty of vehicles in AZ with Vortec engines that pass emmissions. Of course, I would prefer not to have the EGR functioning as I have noticed a slight temporary drop when it kicks in. I...

Re: Should I go for Vortec Heads? Your Opinions will really help! What if I have them ported (lower to the heads) and use the same valves, pistons, CAM, rockers, etc. in there now. Would I have a problem with performance and reliability? Also, if I go this route, although the exhaust...

Re: Should I go for Vortec Heads? Your Opinions will really help! I know that Waller is a great mechanic, but I am not able to get the vehicle to him :cry: :cry: I also believe that my mechanic is a well versed mechanic, and is the only one that has any knowledge of Typhoons in the...

Re: Should I go for Vortec Heads? Your Opinions will really help! Other than what I have included, what other mods would be determinative in porting the Vortec heads?? I am running stock injectors right now in that the 50# ones I have did not run well in the engine. (I think that was due...

Re: Should I go for Vortec Heads? Your Opinions will really help! What I was told is that the head is the stock head that has been ported out to be as close to a Vortec as it can. Not sure what that means, thus my post. My engine is working very well. What I had requested was the best...

Re: Should I go for Vortec Heads? Your Opinions will really help! SO do I take what you are saying to mean that my current configuration fully ported and Vortec specs but not Vortec heads is actually less streetable?

My mechanic has provided me with a decision and I wanted to run it by all you veterans. I have a stock head in my current vehicle. The engine was ported all specs similar to those of a Vortec engine, but no Vortec heads. My mechanic promised me a Vortec and he has stated that he will install...
