I made up my mind about heads to go with
 
I was thinking about buying a set of used windsor jr. heads from a guy online for $525(plus shipping) but then I got to thinking "What if they are cracked or wharped and I waste all that money for nothing?"
I don't have the budget for new aftermarket ones either.
So I thought "Why not just spend $500-$700 on the heads I already have"
Soooooo......I took my heads to the machine shop today and told them I wanted them ported & polished with 1.94/1.60 (2.02/1.60 if they will fit)valves.....the works. He told me he for that much money he could really make them work for me.
Was this a wise choice for the cash I have to spend or not?
If I had the cash, I would have bought a set of AFR's and been with it...but I don't.
The heads I have are from a '73 351w. Will I be able to get the flow out of them I need?

Unless you are shooting for 10's all motor I say you made a wise choice.

I like ported heads cause noone will have the exact same set-up as you.
