Brodix Race rite 200 vs.RHS pro topline

Do you have an opinion on the Brodix race rite 200 heads vs. RHS 12004 pro topline aluminum heads. I bought the Brodix heads. I ordered them angle plug but they gave me straight plug they said they would build me a new set. when I picked them up they gave me the RHS heads. The machine shop said that they are the same head the RHS heads look cheaper than the Brodix But the RHS have the vortec style chamber and they have a whole for the temp sensor. I can deal with not having the sensor hole in the Brodix if they are in fact a better head. what would you guys do Brodix or RHS? I am so forking cornfused. this is my motor setup if the info helps.

Re: Bridix Race rite 200 vs.RHS pro topline

I already paid for the Brodix Race Rite heads my plan for this motor was to give myself room to expand ie paxton or vortec or possibly happy gas. My last motor I built myself into a box it only took 5,00 miles to find out that it was not enough. Cams can be changed and are not expensive if I need to go bigger. My plan was to go bigger than what I need you know the old better to have and not need than to need and not have thing. in this case would you go with the race rite or pro topline/proaction
