TFS TW 190 Fast as Cast heads are pretty BadA$$, What kinda power are you looking for, and what Cam do you have? Header and exhaust size?

Nothing wrong with the Victor Jr's, probably one of my favorite Inline heads.
I would get a custom cam for sure, Give Jay a Call if you want, just dont ask for free info.

There is some Hp left on the table with the TFS stage 2 cam, Id put money on that.
3 inch exhaust will free up some also. I really dont think the Vic Jr's are gonna get you to 450 as long as you have that cam in there.

Definitely, those Victor Jrs would be a step up in power. They're some nasty heads, and then compliment them with a better cam and you'll make that 450 hp.

You should be able to use the TF intake. The Vic Jr's are a 20 degree head IIRC.
