help!! what heads to go with

hey guys, i was wondering which heads would give me the most power with my cam i plan on running. it will be mti g1 cam. specs are 228/232. 581/574 lift i believe. this will also be with a vig. 3200 stall and 3.73 gears. should i go with mti heads, or afr, or even patriots ls6 heads? i wanna make the most power and make sure i do it right the first time. thanks

I like my MIT heads the quality is great and customer service was good too. If you have the money I'd go with the AFR's. The patriots won't out perform the AFR's.

Another vote for MTI.

BUT, I would do the converter FIRST.

thanks for the replies. hey what do you think about prc heads? i emailed texas speed and they said run a 228/228 with their prc heads and a tci stall. what do you think? honestly if i run a mti cam use their heads. but im wondering if theres better heads than mti's. their 2e head is only a ported and polished ls1 head. but i can get stage 2 ls6 heads and cam from patriot for like under 1300 bucks. so im pretty stuck. if i get afr i would definitely have to wait...
