Iron Eagles vs. Pro Lightning
Which heads do you guys think are better, the Dart Iron Eagles or the Pro Lightning? Does anybody have experience with either? Which ones would be better for the street i was looking at about 200cc ports with 64cc chambers. Which ones have a more efficient combustion chamber.
Thanks,
Leigh

If you are planning on using those heads on a 305, you are commiting overkill. 200cc runners will absolutely destroy your low end power. That kind of volume is more appropriate for a well built 350. A 170cc runner volume is much more appropriate for a built 305. Port your own heads and save a fortune! Just click the link at the bottom of my sig.

Still, do your own heads and save. They'll work very well on a 350, too, unless you are wanting to compete in NHRA Pro Street or something like that.
