Out of the box, I think the Roush 200 Windsors are as good as it gets.....

Default Totally depends on what you're building...

For a 302, the GT-40 and GT-40p are probably the best, for a 351 the roush 180's would suit it well, for a stroker 351 or a high compression 351 the Roush 200's would be at home.

I think those IRON street heats are awesome, but header and rocker specific

Are the street heats still in production? I know that trick flow brought the aluminum ones back. I forgot to mention the world products windsor Sr's they're a little big for most 302's though.

Arrow heads

I beleive, the 200's are supposed to be a replacement for the SR's. For a 302 with some engine mods, mild to medium, ported winsdor Jr's are very nice. Im running a set of stage 2's JR's(soon to be replaced) and getting 12.2 @ 117 mph(347) with horrible 60 ft times.(new adjustable uppers are in soon to be installed......hehe)

Thanks for the input. I personally thought the windsor jr's were about the best ones that are readily available. The gt 40's require a certain header. To me that kind of sucks. But they are excellent heads.

Real deal GT-40's don't require different headers, the GT-40P's do however.
