Heads, intake.......AND BEYOND!

dinomite · 03-27-2001, 04:16 PM

What are some good cylinder heads to bolt onto a stock engine? I plan on slapping on some new heads, intake (including throttle body, mass air, etc.), full exhaust (long tubes, high flows, cat back), and cam over the next few months. Just wondering what your suggestions would be as far as heads or even a full combo.

A lot of people have said those are good....one option. How do those compair to gt-40 (and whats the differnece between all the gt-40s like 'P' 'turbo swirl' 'x'?), or trick flow twisted wedge? Another thing, I noticed the Holley Systemax II kit, looks pretty good to me, anyone have anything to say about it?

The AFR 165 or the Hollley's will embarass the Motorsports heads. I like the AFR heads but I have not complaints about my Holley kit other then the NON-EMISSION cam sucks and I did get some bad componets in my heads. But Holley has stood behind the heads and a Brand New set is on the way. The emissions legal cam has nice numbers and would probably run fine. I feel for $2000 the Holley kit is worth every penny, and if you know someone who works at a Advanced Autoparts I have heard they can get it for a sizeable lower price $1500 or so.

I just switched to a Anderson custom grind, got it yesterday!

FYI, Holley recently had a $100 price increase on the Systemax II kit. It is now $2099.

Where can I get AFR heads?

Ok, here is the setup that I've been thinking about (I am completely open to any suggestions):
AFR 165
F303 cam (or E303, its a street car, what'd you think?)
24lb injectors (that ok, or should it be 30?)
190liter/hr fuel pump (or 155?)
fuel rails (are the stockers ok?)
1.6 roller rockers (1.7? I don't know)
pushrods and lifters (suggestions?)
fuel pressure regulator
MAC shorties 1 5/8
MAC High flow cat h-pipe (keep in mind I have emmisions testing)
MAC cat back
Trick Flow Track Heat intake (either that or cobra or edelbrock)
appropriate EGR spacer for above
65mm throttle body (or should it be 70?)
vortech 73mm MAF sensor

Did I forget anything? And I'm always open to suggestions!
