so with 185cc heads, 30lb injectors, 75mm TB, 80mm MAF

would that leave me the option for 331/347 down the road?

get the fox 90mm tb, wont ever need to go bigger, and no it will not hurt to have that huge tb. 90mm maf to match also. honestly, i would get a different head besides the 185...you dont have room to grow...the canfield 195's, with the correct cam will work top notch on a 302, but when you step up to a stroker, you will need another cam. they can be ported to like a 210.

i got some heads, they will make an awesome 302 head, but for a killer stroker, they are just a hair too small. for $900 for alum heads, with the bolt bushings, and they have 700 miles, i got pics of the valve seats, they are perfect...

There are some issues with that post, but I am not going to touch it.

sure they will work, i didnt say that. if the guy built a 408, would 185's work better than a 195 or 210 canfield? thats what im trying to say.

ya' know my friend ordered a set of canfield 195's recently with stage 1 port job and to tell you the truth the ports were way smaller looking than my afr 185's and the roughness of the castings and port job really didn't impress me at all and I am a canfield supporter
