head recommendation new engine?
Planning on building a 406" with superram and a 212/224 @0.050 0.515/0.555 cam.
What head size are you recommending? Comp will be 9.2 daily driven, wont rev past 5800, automatic transmission 2500 stall..............
and 9 psi of boost on top......
Already have Jegs 197cc heads but thinking of getting bigger..
more info....

The 195cc Canfield heads are fine for your purposes.
You could even go up a little in camshaft, especially with the blower.
