Trick Flow 295 Heads

[Mopar Hunter]

What do the Trick Flow 295cc heads flow?

Found this on the Fakebook.

So I emailed trick flow and their response was the 295 heads are designed for 500+ cubic inch motors and high compression. So I'll just concentrate on having a motor built around the 270 heads.

I doubt that would make for a streetable motor, but I could be wrong lol

Well as far as I know , other than the full manual valve body its a stock transmission with good parts in it to handle 700 horsepower. Stock input shaft, stock sprag.

You're going to want to do some upgrades on that trans if you are anywhere near 600-700 hp. Most important would be a steel front drum for safety, your valve body should also have low band apply ,a drag sprag from cope or A&A ,good clutches, etc. I bought a TCI ( total crap inside) 700 hp "competition" trans for my 64', it didn't make 100 miles. Check out CRT -Cope racing transmissions. They have do it yourself packages they will give you some insight as to what you really want in your trans.

The aluminum front planetary gear is another part, the splines can strip out with high HP. The heavier the vehicle, the more stress on the parts.
The Low band apply valve body, Billet Front Drum, and Drag Sprag (Cope) or Super Sprag (A&A) are upgrades for safety to prevent drum explosions.
It's easy to get $5,000 + in upgrades to a 727.
The Built 48RE for the diesels can be $10,000+

Cope says do the 727 billet front drum first over the other mods for safety if your making much power.

It's interesting the TF295 is flowed on a 4.5" bore and bigger 2 1/8 exh pipe. I wonder how much that adds over a 4.35" and a 2". The exhaust port cc is unchanged but is showing more flow over a 240/270.

I build plenty of these. Almost every street unit runs the stock drum. The drum can be a safety issue. Though I've personally never hurt one. A good drum , TF2 kit or manual valve body, quality frictions from Raybetos, Borg Warner, or Alto. I prefer the hard band. 3.8-4.2 lever, $30 46RH trans pan with a billet E bay filter extension. This combo will survive 750hp with ease for years of use. No need for low band apply or a steel planet at this power level.

I dont know what low band apply is, but im happy with my full manual valve body I've had for almost 30 years

Maybe I just had bad luck with my planetary gear. The aluminum splines were cracked and falling out on my slow 11 second 4,200 pound car, and that was just foot brake bracket racing, no trans brake.

4000 lbs street car, sticky tires 640/650 493 . I’m glad I had a billet steel drum and low band apply
