[QUOTE="ScottyDsntKnow, post: 370278, member: 10454"] Well what do you want to do? GT40 irons are great street heads and can get you into the 12s easy. Any aluminum head is also going to get you a nice bump in power although the TFS and AFRs are the best. I went with Edels due to budget constraints but even with them I know I'll be able to hit the 300-320whp mark without a problem. So what are your goals for this car and is it going to be a street car or a track car? TFS and AFRs are the best out of the pack of Aluminums. RHS and Edels are the next teir down but still great. The GT40 stuff is after that and I would not waste money on GT40 aluminums but the irons are an amazing bang for the buck head. The Patriots are cheap Chinese copies and I would stay away. And really what you WANT is a properly matched combo with all the parts working in unison. You can slap together something that makes 350whp but has a ****ty powerband and you have a hard time getting consistantly into the 12s. Or you can have a car that is matched perfectly, makes great average power across the board and runs 11s. Bob Cosby had an 88 GT that made 286whp and ran 11.90s all day. So let us know what your budget and goals are and we can go from there. If you want advice from a professional get ahold of Ed Curtis at Flowtech Induction or Jay Allen at Camshaft Innovations and they'll set you up. [/QUOTE]
