302 5.0 heads which one to choose ?
#11
if your patient and check craigslist and things like that you will be able to find a good deal. I just bought a set of AFR 185 heads, brand new never even put on a car and started for 1,000. Given i have to buy rockers for them, but i think thats a hell of a deal.

What about these heads are they anything worth while ? i know i would have to buy everything for them becuase they are just the base heads but would they be better then the gt40s ?

you realize those are bare... and steel, right.
Its gonna cost you another ~500-800 to get those into usable condition
just keep the GT40's

yeah well say it cost 800 thats only about 1200 for them would that be worth it i really dont know much about this stuff so if you were building this motor what would you go with on heads and an intake?

well if you say you want to stay close to 1000 then you cant spend 1200 on just the heads. you'll still have to buy gaskets and supporting mods to make everything work together. nacanitihs posted a link to another forum that has a great classified section. look in there and scrounge around for heads and such. you should be able to find a (good) set for around 900. then remember you'll need intake and head gaskets at the very minimum. but to do it all correctly you'll want and intake and cam to make it work together. then you'll need bigger injectors, throttle body...

To me it seems like your rushing into buying a set of heads and that will be the biggest mistake you will make.
Take your time, look around, always good deals to be had. Corral forums always has Eddy heads and Trick Flow from 800-1000
If you rush your going to get something you don't want.
But its your money, i can't tell you what to do.
