TR224 Cam with which head? Which head would work better with the TR224 cam? 205cc AFR or 225cc AFR? I would assume bigger is better but I don't know if the smaller 224 cam would work better with the smaller 205cc AFR heads. Any advice would be great.

Gonna all depend on where you want your powerband and how high you want to rev it. If you are sticking with the TR224 camshaft then the 205cc head will make great power & torque within factory RPM limits. The 225cc head will ultimately make more peak power on a stock cube engine, however you will have to buzz it pretty hard to get the results.

It's DD so it won't be reving overly high much but I do like to push it too the floor sometimes. But for the lower RPMs, it wouldn't be a whole lot different between the two?

Stay with the 205's IMO. The smaller port and high velocity of this head will better suite a street car. They will also work with any larger cam if you decide to go bigger in the future.
