these heads too much? dart pro 1's

i got an offer for some dart pro 1 aluminums

the only problem i see is they have 215 cc runners . dude is asking 800

i can get these local

another man is selling some canfields with 197cc runners and he is also asking 800 but i would have to split shipping from the other side of the country.

i would prefer local but would 215's be to much for my setup in my sig? ive got an xr276 cam waiting to go in at the same time as the heads.

thanks!

For a 350 on the street, yes. The Canfields would work better.

this from personal experience?

cuz basically with my car its either im just driving, or when im racing in between 4-6k anyways

and launching im only from 1500-4k for the first gear which my stall and gears take care of that pretty fine.

Tell F-bird your complete setup, he's definitely the "head"man..i/e gears/cam/intake and exhaust.

Not only will he answer which is better, but my guess is he'll tell ya what you need
