Default heads question

alright.. so i've searched info about both gt40 and afr 185cc heads... and have still not come to a conclusion to which would be better.. keeping in consideration i'm definitely going to be getting an Edelbrock upper intake manifold.. and also depending on which heads i get.. what cams would be good!?

i would appreciate your input, thanks

definetly the rpm II upper and lower intake with the 185's. the afr's will blow the gt40's outta the water. and a 70mm tb is all youll need. i actually felt a gain in power when i went from 75mm to 70mm tb.
