TFTW are good if u want to put some port work into them, if u want the best bolt on head i'd look elsewhere. What is the engine bored to?

I have afr 185 with basically the same set up you have and i love it, i had gt40p cast iron heads those were good then but since i threw these on night and day i picked mine up bare for 800, i already had the valves and springs and retainers and seats, i would look in to them

I know I'm gonna need rockers. I figured that the heads are more important but any rocker suggestions?
