AFR 205s on lsx 454?? Am not in a position currently to buy a new shortblock, but I am looking at my next stage of mods. I am wanting to go with a high compression (11.5:1) NA engine, but have a 250-350 DP shot (possibly two stages).
I currently have AFR 205s. Was wondering how much they would choke a lsx 454?
I figured I could send them to Tony mamo for porting, but would that be enough? Would it be better to try and sell the set i have and go for the new AFR 225s or a set of ETPs? Thanks in advance.

I would sell them and buy some bigger heads. ET 245 or bigger or ls7 heads or tf 235's or bigger or T4P Darts....

How much benifit would the extra torque be on the lsx 454? It seems that this would only cause traction issues. Also, doesnt ETP have a 6-bolt head? I was thinking this would be benificial for a large N2O shot (prevent pushing water/lifting heads).
