Default getting 1.7's-what brand?

I'm got some edelbrock performer heads and am gonna get the 1.7 rr. What kind should I get? They are stud mount heads. I hear that Crane makes good ones. Is there anything else I should look for? I am also gonna get the TFS1 cam.

Ice-I haven't gotten a chance to run it cuz it blew a headgasket the same day that I had everything installed. I'll find out here as soon as I get it all installed. It sucks cuz I was driving it home from the shop and it blew the headgasket. I drove it for like 10 miles. It overheated right before I did the install so I guess it damaged my headgasket.
