Head to head

Oldschoolpony · 06-30-2002, 12:12 AM

Ok, this is a time old question. But im asking arounf to those of you that have either AFR 205's or Roush 200's.

Without weight or material being a deciding factor, Which head flows best. AFR 205's or roush 205's. Figure the AFR's with the 90cc exhaust work for NOS or the Roush 200's with an all out stage 3 race port job.( AFR says their heads come out of the box as equivalent of a stage 3 )

My combo is a 347 at 11 to 1 and currently have stage 3 world jrs. and a HR 292 comp cam. 589 lift in 613 lift ex. 244 dur in 255 dur ex. And will be going to a XR 292 or larger. which has about 20 deg lift and 10 deg dur. more and 110 instead 112 C.L

Even though I am not a big fan of the AFR head results speak for themselves.

Everyone I have spoken to about AFR heads loves them and love their performance,your combo looks very similar to one of the engine buildups in the Aug 2002 of MM&FF.

Good luck with your combo,those XR Comp Cams are stout.

That combo in the aug issue is kind of what Im shooting for, maybe even one of the 347's in the new issue. Looking for about 550 at the crank and an additional 175 shot of gas.
