canfield heads are pretty much the best heads on the market. i dont think i've ever heard anyone using them complain once about them. i'm going with afr185s on my build though, simply because they are a little less expensive than the comparible canfields.

Trick Flow Twisted Wedge is the best bang for the buck IMO. How many other heads have you seen people bolt on a stock shortblock and also put on 8sec cars?

Are the AFR springs useless even with a mild street cam? Im not putting any crazy race cam in the car.
Are the heads Canfield makes for Jeg's the same exact heads as sold under the Canfield name or are they of lesser quality and performance?

The biggest downside to an afr head, is the valve spring it comes with is useless and should be changed. I have used TFS heads 10+ years ago and they always work well. Plus side to the canfield is they rock and can be had with a spring that you need right out of the box. Not everyone runs them like an afr or TFS and thats reason alone. Who do you think makes all of Jegs private label heads? Thats right, canfield.
