The Head technology that all the race teams are using is far superior to what most of us are running.

Pro stock,Pro mod,Top comp all these classes run 12-14* type of head's. Guess what degree LS based engines run? 12* I believe.

I wonder much like every one here has. Do I build BBC, LS based motor or do I take advantage of the cylinder head technology and convert from 23* to 14*-18*
Can I save in cost? Will it perform like a LS motor?
So many variables.
