Do the AFR 165s flow better than GT40 X 178 heads ?

much better, but the trick flows flow even better <IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">afr 185s are pretty expensive. if you put the money you save into a new intake you will get more power than the 185s <IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">

165 will only flow better on a less demanding engine...put 205s on a stock engine and watch the hp decrease...
