i am building a 355 tpi motor for my car and was wondering what heads you guys suggest to produce some good power gains. i'll be running the LT4 hot cam with 1.6 roller rockers. i have a limited budget and was wondering what heads you would suggest. i was thinking sportsman 2's or dart iron eagles (200cc). anything else otu there available at a good price? tahnks!

 

I think Trick Flows are still under a grand. But they have maximum valve lift figures so the cam you have may be 2 big.

Spend the extra 200 and get the AFR's. They work real well. I don't know 2 many TPI guys running Trick flow.

 

AFR's run about $1600 complete.

 

I bought mine a few years back. They were either 1150 or 1200.

Also they were milled to 58CC which was an extra 150 and they were drilled for a heat riser an extra 50.

I paid I believe 1400 total.

If you were building a motor from scratch. You wouldn't need to have them milled to 58cc. You could use the 64's. Also, The heat riser is for smog only. You could save a few bucks that way.

Check around some places sell them with mild porting for that price.

 

Check Martel Bros. They have AFR 195's for $1250. + 25. shipping.
