Will Vortec heads work with a TBI set up? Will it make some decent power?

 

I'm still in the process of tuning my new engine and it's working out decent so far.

 

Answer is yes

Has worked for me for over 4 years. Awesome powerband. Only two downsides for me were piping EGR, and cost of the GM Performance intake. I have since done away witht he EGR and have a custom PROM burned for the heads, cam, and engine size changes.

 

works great. you just need a vortec style intake manifold. GM advertises them as a 20-40 horsepower gain over any earlier factory head. theyre basically LT1 heads without the reverse flow cooling. i have 60cc vortecs on my 406 with the performer rpm airgap intake

 

I was gonna say professional products sells a decent vortec carb manifold at a low cost. need an adapter plate. I would avoid the air gap style untless you drive in warm state. I am WI so that would be bad choice for me.

 

Vortec heads don't have heat risers anyway. So idk what difference it would make which intake is used.

 

A cold manifold is problematic with TBI fueling. Cold helps facilitate gas falling out of atomization. Not a problem when fully heat sunk...
