canfield makes the Z304 heads, they use an offset rocker arm, if you dont know what your doing leave them alone. They make a ton of steam though, I just built a 347 using them, solid roller, carbd in a foxbody and the car went 6.40 on a 125 shot in the 1/8th right out of the box on some test passe. I would use a CNC 185 Twisted wedge head before an afr205

why is that the canfields at least on the 195's don't have any markings like they used to saying in big letters canfield?? ya know like afr's, edelbrock or trick flows do??? all the canfields that I have recently installed just have a canfield part number

Not too many people use the Z304, they must be more expensive but like MJR said they always make good numbers when tested

AFR 205's. They have the lightest valvetrain of any of the cylinder heads mentioned, and have a nice cross sectional flow as well.

I do not know who ported the Z304, so that is a big decision.
