Default Cam and heads?

I have a 95 gt with a cold air intake, Edelbrock rpm 2 intake, flow tech 2 1/2 x-pipe no cats, smog pump eleminator, and flowmaster mufflers. Looking to buy a cam and heads, wondering if its best to stick with edelbrock stuff for matching purposes, or if there is better combo's. Also car is a daily summer driver, but doesn't like losing at red lights. Any suggestions?

Afr's and a custom grind would be the best way to go IMHO...

RHS costs less than AFR and flow more air. Combined with that RPM 2 intake and a matching cam from RHS' parent company, Comp Cams, you will make some SERIOUS power. Let me know if you have any questions.

like vfast said... it's all about how much power your wanting to make vs. how much money your willing to spend. the cheapest being iron gt40/p will run you about $300 bucks and the most expensive would be afr with can run you well over $1100.

What prices seem higher? I try to be as competitive as possible, and I try to give mustangforums members discounts when possible. It's very difficult to compete with the big chains price-wise, but I try to make up for it with excellent customer service. Most of the time my prices are right on, or even better, than most of the big companies. Don't forget, I offer FREE shipping over $50, while the big companies like Jegs and Summit charge a flat 8.95 handling fee on every order. Let me know what I can do to make things better, what I can do to have you as a customer.

If you go with a set of RHS 200 iron heads, they will flow more than AFR 185, and they cost less than $1,000. Check them out here, let me know if you have any questions. RHS Heads @ ProMustangPerformance

Where can I see how much they flow, comparing them to AFRs and others, like Trick Flow.
