But....even leaving a few of the nickels and dimes on the table in an effort to save money I think we could get close with my new 235 heads but your not getting there with a ported OEM casting.....not to mention the potential is there for more when you have the coin to go after the nickel and dimes if you have the killer set of heads as your solid foundation (that's 3/4 of the battle right there)!!

Works for me! I'm open to any and all options! Haha.

What do your 235s run usually?
Round about the same as a new set of AFRs or more?

Also, thanks for the email back! You'd be correct in assuming it came from this thread lmfao!

Anywho, what specs would you figure on a cam to go with those heads? I know you said mild would do it (which is -awesome-, mild is exactly what I want)
