? AFR Stage 3 205's w/ TR224 cam? I have a chance to get a set of Stage 3 ported AFR hedas from TTP for a good price. They are milled.030, Matt said the CR would be about 10.9. My question is are these heads wrong for a small cam. I am running a TR224. I don't want to lose any low end TQ, or tip in/throttle response. Anything I should be concerned about? P/V clearance on a stock block?
Thanks,
Dave

You should be well into the 400s with that cam and AFR heads. The power in my signature is made with only a 224/228 cam.

I know I will be over the 400 mark, the question is on the Stage 3 port job. Will the porting on the AFR's effect my low end Tq, and Throttle response? I wanted to know if stage 3 ported AFR's are wrong for a small cam. (that I already have in the car)

I would imagine you would loose some low-end and throttle response. It seems like you're a little worried about this, rightly so.
What can it hurt to try them? Are you doing the install yourself? If they really are a killer deal, buy them and try them. If you are not happy with them, trade them off or sale them.
You could also build a stroker to help your parts 'mismatch'.

Oh, let me add this.
Run your DCR at the limit as it will help low-speed output. Just keep in mind if you're going with a bigger cam, you'll have to flycut later on.

Get the TSP PRC small runner head (200cc).Those will work and make sure compression is 10.8-1 or more.
Someday you WILL listen
