    Your options are ported stockers with upgraded hardware, or TrickFlow's for aftermarket. I went with TrickFlow because they have 10 thread spark plug holes (no inserts), No plug boss to get eaten up in the combustion chamber, a thicker deck to further prevent warping, and replaceable cam towers may be a good thing someday.

    Fox lake racing and modular head shop both have good reputations, they both have a couple versions of ported stock heads as well as the tf heads

    I went with Trick Flow and after about 25-30k miles the timing chain tensioner turned lose on the passenger side. Let the valves come down and just touch the pistons. Just enough to bend the valves.

    Are you trying to imply that's a TrickFlow issue? Cause its not.
