Kevin's dad slapped on a TPI onto the L03 longblock and got lots of low end grunt, more so than TBI. Personally I'd rather see results from either a comparative dyno session or track times.
After doing the L03 thing I put a pair of those heads (193's) on a '96 Vortec 350 short block. It made 210hp & 330tq. to the rwhls. I then did some porting experimenting on them. You're right on the 168 cc's I had them flowed beforehand and was shocked at the results....178 intake 146 exhaust ( on a standard Super Flow) I was able to increase the cc's to 175 and the flow to 196 intake and 183 exhaust (didn't measure ex. cc's). I put them back on and went back to the dyno....250hp & 335tq The car ran 14.07 previously and 13.70 after, this was using an LT1 cam and 1.6 rockers on the intake. I know it had more in it but I didn't spend anymore time on the project. So in conclusion they may not be real good heads but they do perform with a little work ( I didn't spend alot of time on the porting, just roughed them out but polished the ex.).
