Best out of the box, 23*, reasonably priced, slap-on-and-go heads in my opinion are AFR. The absolute best stuff out there starts out probably around twice the price.

Dart 230cc heads are also pretty good and not too expensive.
EDIT: nevermind, they're about the same price as AFRs

Re: Best Cylinder heads?
depends on power level and price. But yes as stated above, AFR's are great.

Re: Best Cylinder heads?
The best heads for a TBI engine are completely different than the best heads for a TPI or carb engine.
AFR 195's are probably too big for a TBI's power level. Stick with 180cc heads.
