aftermarket heads

mudchucker · 09-29-2005, 04:14 PM

Hey guys,
I am going to be going with an E-cam and i am curious what your experiences have been with the different aftermarket heads. I am not looking for anything wild, just a nice upgrade. Also, what are the drawbacks you have found with these different heads, like warping from too much heat and that type of thing.

Thanks

I just put a set of AFRs on my 95. I will have dyno numbers later today and track numbers Friday night (although the track numbers will be skewed because I also added a water/methanol injection kit to cool my blower output). Everything I have heard about the AFR heads is good. But, you will probably get similar responses about a lot of different heads. I'll post some numbers this afternoon when they dyno it with just the heads and headers.

afr's, trickflow and edelbrocks are the heads you will hear most about. there are other but those 3 are the ones that get mentioned most.

I'm running a set of prototype Canfield heads right now. Actually, I believe they're available on the market now, it's been a few months since I had them.

Anyways, wouldn't sell them for $50,000! You don't have to get as radical as these are, but anything Canfield sells is top notch quality and design.

Just purchased a set of Canfield's and sent them out to PBF to be ported. Have to pick them up tomarrow. Can't wait to see them and get them on the car.
