Default What heads?

Have a GT 40 Intake, would the GT 40 X303 heads match them alright, or what kind of heads would you guys get. Really want all ford products. Not a drag car, just a street part time fun ride. Thanks!

Are the AFR 185s street legal?

I wanted the 185s but have been thinking about the 165s. Which would you suggest.

if you are staying n/a get the 165's
boosted or n2o go 185's.

the 185's may require you to flycut the pistons for clearance though.
