alum is the way to go. I ending up spending 900 bucks getting head work done on my CJ. Bowl work, springs couple new valves and stuff like that. I was pissed when I found out edelbrock alum heads where only 1100 with everything already to bolt to car. Even the springs where good enough for my cam.

AFR is air flow research. The best ford head are the gt-40x turbo swills I think that is what they are called. Probably a little to much head for what you are doing. I have purchased trick flow products for my 91 and was very impressed with them. Workmanship was excellent. I really don't know anything about AFR 165s other than your normal magazine and internet articles. Everyone says how good they are. I would defenitly recomend the Trick flow heads.
