afr's all the way, 185 cc or 165 cc! www.fordmuscle.com has an article about it. And in one of the issues of Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords, showed AFR domanting with the 165cc with a 90 HP bolt on horse power with a newer intake and dyno headers on a 5.0! So I would go with AFRs, they are also the most hp per buck!<IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">

Your all forgeting about the Holley heads for EFIs. They make a really awesome set, I'm looking at those the most right now.
