AFR 205's?
AFR 205's? Im considering getting some of these for my future set up (in sig). any comments on these heads, how are they? with that cam is it a good combo? im trying to keep it sleeper on the street and at the track (or some person trying to mess with me) im gunna open the cut outs. This is also my daily driver is this set up realiable for daily driving? Also on the stock heads what are the stock chambers? Im trying to decide wheater or not to get the 66cc or the 76cc combustion chambers
thanks
thanks

like squintz said that setup will be very streetable and make great power... go with the 66cc chambers ... no need for the search button, all your questions were answered and could of been in the time it took to type .. "JRP, can I take this one ?"
search button is great guys, but when it takes as much time as typing "use the search button" to answer a question, why not just answer it? you're already takin the time to type a reply anway, might as well answer the question.
and no offense to tony, run your business how you like, but i would of expected you to at least take the time to answer the guy since he is asking bout your heads. to me it seems that when you have a potential customer you try to be as helpful and informative as possible ... yes you might be repeating yourself 50 times but how's that any different when you get in-person customers in your shop, are they suppose to know what questions some guy that came in the other day asked and what the answer was?
btw i think some of you guys pick and choose which questions you'd like to answer and which to just say use the search button and it has no bearin on whether the questions was asked a million times or not ... a thread was started bout ls6 heads vs ls1 heads and was extensively explained and this thread bout afr heads was just ignored ... i'm pretty sure if i'm not mistaken both ls1 and ls6 heads have been out much longer than afr heads and the there would be a lot more to information on that topic using search than this one.

Well said madpwr1
VaNDaL*SS* The AFRs are great heads! Get the 66cc and if you don't already have the cam, get the cam AFR recommends with these heads. I believe it is a 224/228 cam on their grid. Or maybe Tony could share what it is.

I don't think anyone called you a dumbass. It's kinda funny to see questions like that when the 205's have been discussed so much here. 
Plus, most of the laughter was directed towards Jerami.... AFR's are some of the best, or the best on the market.

I noticed you have a Stealth II listed in your future mods...Do not use that cam with the AFR's I lost about 30 rwhp when I switched heads to the AFR's. I am now swapping in the cam that afr recomends. Should have dyno numbers in about a week.

I did not mean to offend anybody but questions like "How are they" and "what cam is a good combo" are questions that cannot be answered easily or quickly (for the most part) knowledgeable members and vendors have taken the time (in the case of many folks that time is valuable) to discuss these things at length on the very same page. It is difficult to succinctly and accurately distill 20 pages of discussion *again*. Not that you even bothered to look, but perhaps you did not know to look (?) and in that instance nobody has any bitch about being told to "use the search button." You should be saying "thank you" because somebody is doing you a favor and putting your *** up on some valuable info.
i would have been satisfied with yeah people really like those head, they are some of the best. that is all i was really looking for not 2 pages of tech jargon. like how squintz answered or how lady red hawk answered and wildheart. i just wanted a quick answer as to what they thought of the set up and how people like the heads. JRP should just close this thread now b4 people start shitting their pants on how excited they will get on putting their .02 cents in.
I would seriously take consideration to Wildheart's post. She lost 30 rwhp going from Absolute heads to AFR's with the Stealth II cam. I would look at an AFR cam that's been tested with their heads, I'm sure they have one that will pass emissions. My .02..

btw, yes a search would help, it definitely would give the guy a lot more information, but would answering his question kill you? who knows something more could come out of a little question ... like have you ever heard the results wildheart posted before from any other afr thread?
this is gettin way off subject ... either help the guy with his questions or close the thread cause it's not going anywhere if the discussion conitues like this.
