search!! for DD most people recommend something pretty mild..such as a 224 or 228 cam, with decent heads...a buddy of mine has trickflow heads and a 228/232 cam and put down over 450rwhp, and still gets over 20mpg on the highway.

Well with the TFS you will need rockers but the AFR's you dont.

Your looking at $2599 for a set of AFR 205's (milled) with a custom Comp cam to your door

Well if you've already got the rockers then you can go to the TFS if you want for about the same price on the 215's.

I can include gaskets and PR's we prefer to measure rather than go with a standard length, but I can include that in the package. I'll pm you with a parts list and price for both the AFR and TFS with heads gaskets and push-rods and the heads being milled to your desired CC.
