Default another head thread.. AFR choice.

im going to be ordering heads for my midframe turbo 347 really soon. like as soon as i make up my mind..

the two i am looking at are by AFR. im not getting a stock casting so dont try...i want an aftermarket head and thats that...

anyway the two i am looking at are the 210cc and the 230cc..

both have a small bore version and good flow numbers being AFR of course they do

the 210cc have a 66cc chamber and the 230 have a 65cc chamber so the compression will be slightly higher..

the thing that worries me is the bigger valves in the 230s maybe being shrouded in the smaller bore...

also will the velocity drop with the larger 230 head....

i also have a message in to tony mamo and feel he is goin to tell me to go with the larger 230

input please!

230. Run the bigger head on a FI motor. If it was NA I would say the 210
