Not really much better then what you have as far as flow. I would be looking for some GT40P heads or GT40 heads if you are tight on cash. Be very careful and check piston to valve clearance due to 86 pistons are full flat tops and have no valve reliefs cut in them.

I don't think those CL heads would get you much.
I'd the GT's with the right valve springs for your cam

If you get the gt40p's its very very recomended to replace the springs by th way, and depending on how much $ you have, corral.net has some fairly sheap heads
