9-second True Street Car

Congratulations to Domenic who raced his Torana at Calder Park recently. The LJ went a best of 9.93/136mph in full street trim (radials, exhaust, 98 pump fuel) and improved to a 9.83/138mph dropping the mufflers. The car features a Westernlink Automotive naturally aspirated 400ci Chev using Higgins CNC ported Racer Pro 23-degree cylinder heads good for 650hp on PULP. Great result first time out with this combo!

All new for 2012

After extensive wet flow research and development we have new and improved GM LS series heads available in LS3 and L98 configuration.

Featuring improved inlet port design, we have different programs to suit both head and camshaft packages as well as 400+ci applications.



Aussie manufactured Higgins LS-series cast alloy CNC ported heads

To suit LS7, L98/LS3 ports for street and race applications.

Customised designed port configuration to suit your own needs. Unlike other companies we don't have one port to suit all.

All heads feature 6-bolts per cylinder and use CHE seats and guides.
