The RHS heads areexcellent headsand flow right withand sometimes beyond the Trickflow TW and AFR heads. They havent been around long though and havent reached cult status like the TFS and AFR heads.

Alot of people hate the P heads but alot of guys love em. I've seen alot of buys go over the 300rwhp mark with P heads, they are overall a better head than the gt40. But you run into problems with the headers and plugs, kindof a pain, and a very small choice for headers.

I've seen some tests w/ RHS heads and they are good heads, but aren't they more expensive? I may not be remembering correctly.....They are iron though, so you won't shave 60#'s of the front end w/ them......

I agree that the gt-40p is an excellent head and is capable of making some serious RWHP. You stick larger valves in them and do alittle port work and your flowing right up there with alot of the aftermarket iron heads. As for the RHS heads, they are available in both iron and aluminum and are usually alittle more than the Trick flows ( but are better quailty castings IMO) but cheaper than the AFR's. Check out the link below for more info on the RHS heads.

RHS heads are iron or alum, whichever you want to order, and I can get them $100 cheaper than I can get the AFR 165's off ebay for.

if you can get ahold of some nice gt-40 heads you could get them ported and polished pretty cheap and they will outflow AFR 165.. actually be pretty close to the 185's if u dont wanna hassel with find gt-40 from a junk yard you could just but some AFR's there nice heads for sure... very costly tho.. i already have gt-40 cuz i have a cobra so im just goin to get them ported and polished
