AFR's are a must and are worth the extra money if you ask me

i'll say this i was proved wrong about gt40's not being effective...

the person that did my cam hit 11.50's on a gt40'd mustang.......so what i'm saying is get the right cam/some port work you'll hit it.

i feel that. tired of hearing so much about these afr's. now i know theyre good heads guys. really good. but come on, my vic jrs. were 1250 complete with .650 rated springs, and everything else. the afr 165's cost about 10-50 dollars more than mine. but my heads really outperform the 165's, or even the 185's by a good bit. afr's are not the best bang for the buck IMO.

AFR heads are great for being CNC ported, but TFS CNC'd twisted wedges absolutly stomp them 185's to 185's But then you gotta add in the cost of the AFR's $1300 compared to the TFS's which are almost $1900 at summit. So for CNC'd heads I'd say they are a great value.
