Do some research in the internal engine section over at ls1tech.com. AFR makes some very nice heads.

AFR heads are usually no joke. Much better than stockers and popular among the LS crowd.

My bad, the pictures didn't load for me the first time so I wasn't sure what you were talking about.

If I am right that is Meaux Racing heads.

If it is I found this information for you.

Meaux Racing Heads
9827 LA Hwy. 343
Abbeville, Louisiana 70510
337-893-1541

There are a few article writing by Larry Meaux, I found about heads and other things. So I think this may be the person that did work on the heads on your engine.

here some basic info on Meaux Racing (http://hotrodengines.wordpress.com/2012/09/30/pipemax-creator-larry-meaux-on-race-engine-head-porting/) seems he's a small race engine builder for a long time

I think you got yourself a set of killer heads. There is a website called speedtalk where they talk about Meaux a lot, he has a great reputation.

I would suggest contact him and see if he knows anything about your engine.

hmmmm the engine was the one that pat (patīs custom cars from ramona CA) sold a couple months ago with a lot of other stuff here on pt. it was planned as a procharger engine. unfortunately it turned out not being an ls2 like advertised but it was so cheap and i donīt mind having an iron block. i asked pat a couple times for a parts list but never got one and now he didnīt reply on my messages on facebook and email. it was sold to me as 418cui stroker and i opened to check that it has a stroker kit. but whatever iīll just strap that thing onto the chassis dyno this spring and if i donīt like it performancewise iīll just shove my aluminum 540bbc back in and sell the LS.
