i'd stay with a small runner to promote better velocity/tq.something like an afr 205 or the tfs 215.

True, a small runner head will work great with that cam...especially with more compression. You might look into the PRC Edlebrock Terminator Series head with the 200cc runner. It will also have a 61cc chamber so you'll get a great bump in compression as well. For 1899.99 assembled with the double springs they are very hard to beat!!!

Let me know if your interested and I"ll get you more info and help out in any way I can!

I have the AFR 205s milled .20 off with my 228R cam..

PRCs are not a bad choice either

advancing the cam a couple of degrees would give you more low end and midrange, but less power up top. Retarding the cam does the opposite,it pushes the power band up slightly and give you more top end but you would sacrifice some tq down low.
i'm not an expert though.. trust me, i had to pay to have the cam installed..

I hope you don't mind my asking but did you install your cam advanced a few degrees? The reason I ask is because the numbers in your sig are a bit low for that combination.

They are on our website:
http://www.texas-speed.com/shop/item...d=667&catid=40

You won't have to buy springs, the heads without springs are 1675.00 plus shipping. The heads work awesome especially with the small runner!
