Default Head and intake flow. Something to think about. :)

Im getting a set of AFR 165's and an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake. The intake flows around 217 to 220 per runner, the heads flow 245 per intake runner. Will you really get the full power out of these heads if the intake is holding it back that much ???? I have heard that the intake should flow more than the heads. Any ideas on what can be done other than porting the intake or going with a different intake? Also these flow numbers were from 2 different sources. Its possible that the numbers might be WAY off and im just worrying for nothing. The holley systemax intake flows more but I think it might flow too much for a N/A combo. What do you guys think??
