the MS3 won't clear with the AFR's. The Darts have more clearance than the stock heads, flow very well and are a lot less money

I think the ARF's also have more clearance than stock allowing you to also run the ms3 cam with the AFR heads. I ran my trak cam with my AFR's and stock gaskets with out having to flycut my pistons in my 02 T/A.

Call TSP, they will tell you for sure.
But IIRC they will clear unmilled with stock gasket (.054)

I was told by Tony that "out of the box" AFR's will clear, but not the milled.030. Most people have their AFR's milled and that is why I said it won't clear. Pretty much what Predator-Z said
