AFR has awesome heads as do TFS, PRC, TEA and others. It’s about the combo and starting it right and not just piece milling it together. Getting the best heads you can afford and build properly from there is what makes a well thought out set up.

Look at the PRC 227 & 215 heads. They're on special for $2200 & will do very well for you. They don't require aftermarket rockers like the TFS, and if you buy them without springs & move your springs over you'll have less than $2,000 in them!!
Checkout the hot rod magazine article just released this month. I think you'll like what the PRC aftermarket casting heads are capable of!
If your looking to save some $$ we can do you the PRC Stage 2.5 LS6 heads with a 2.04 1.60" valve combo for the standard LS6 stage 2.5 price!

Not trying to take no sides but most of the cars I have seen on this board with trick flow heads had higher mph.MPH =Horsepower.Sorry just my thoughts.You can't go wrong with none of these heads.Definately want to call for your needs.

Best 346 head without a doubt in my mind is the PRC 227 small chambers. We can get you good valve drop, 227cc runners (330cfm range) and 59cc ish chambers while keeping clearance good!
That's exactly the head that helped us bump down the stock bottom end record to it's current 9.66 time.

did you get them milled to your desired chamber size?most vendors will mill and ship them for free for $1680.do a cam at the same time ,so you only have to tear it apart and tune it once.

Im dead sure it would be in a 9 second range since im a full weight car
and i have a pretty heavy sound system in there car
so im thinking maybe with heads stall gears and all the proper supportive mods ill be in the low 11's or MYABE a high 10.

The patent answer on this site for a good daily driver cam seems to be the Thunder Racing 224 cam (224/224 .563/.563), or something similar.
