      if you are dead set on AFRs get the 185s, if not then pick up a set of TFS Wedge heads.

            I'm no expert but to really give a recommendation someone is going to need all the specs on the complete combo. If you're looking to bolt something on out of the box an AFR 185 is a great choice but if you want to buy bare castings and fill them with some good parts there are some really good heads out there. I'm running a set of TFS "R"s on a 410 ci motor. Should know pretty soon how they do. They move a ton of air. Nick

                i personally have never liked the AFRs, besides the ever growing rocker mount issue and valve issue, ive heard of some cooling issues, and to top if off i noticed their flow numbers are skewed due to a header size that can be misleading. wedge or Rs would do nicely.

                          thats funny i was originally going to go with Dart for a long time, but i changed my mind earlier this year. ever since they started making the dart pro 1's for sbf i have never actually met anyone running them.
