Welp...plans changed again. Im keeping the 489 but selling the car. Ha!
Anyways, Im in the market for a set of good heads to replace the 990's im selling.

AFR 335 CNC's outta the box, Dart 325's + CFM porting, or Brodix's?

Anyone have any opinions? Is that runner size to big for my application?

Jason,
Is this going to be street driven? Compression?
What cam?
I think the 335's are going to be way more head than you need.
I feel the 315's would be a much better choice.

This is going to be a max effort motor, hoping for 750+ hp.

335's with the second cam with .800+ at the valve & a little less exhaust duration like 286-288 as long as you ain't afraid of a little RPM graemlins/beers.gif
Get the compression to 13.5+ if you can

Let me know if I can help with the heads,,,

Thanks Mike, I was planning on going through you guys anyway :D
I have to sell my 990's first though...
And I have a buddy who wants a set of AFR's for his small block too :D
Im not scared of a little RPM, hopefully my Scat 4340 crank isn't either tongue.gif

Thanks Jason the wolves & I appreciate it :D

Before you get too serious about the cam you might want to give Tony a call as he is a wealth of information when it comes to what works with these heads,, just tell him I told you to harass him,,,

I will be gone Dec 7- Dec 13 to the PRI show so if you email me & don't get a response I ain't ignoring you,,, I just ain't here,,
of course there are those that figure I haven't been quite all here for a while now,,, :D
