Default AFR 165 Heads/2006 Mustang GT

So, I have read a lot of posts about heads, and have done a lot of reading all over the web. I believe I have it narrowed down to a set of AFR 165s for my 2006 mustang GT. The price is right (I can not afford FI). I have read nothing but good things about these heads. Can anyone speak from experience on these? I am still looking for numbers on a stock S197...Also, does anyone know a good Cam to go with these heads? I am trying to keep the car polite on the street, as it is my daily driver.

The AFR heads are for the 302-351 push rod engines. They will not work on a modular Ford...... 4.6-5.4

I hope you're joking, because if you know so little about your car, you don't deserve any help.


To answer you question though, AFRs (Air Flow Research) are just about the best heads available for a Ford push rod engine...

Done.

SirKnight,
The Livernois heads are too much money... Thats why I was looking at the AFRs. But now I see they might not even work for the S197?
