My opinion for the best "budget" head on the market is the Dart 205's as cast. This head is putting down some great numbers and Summit had them for 1200 or so. I would consider the extra $200 for these. If you do get heads dont forget to do your research on a cam...

What's the difference in the Dart 205 and the 225 heads?

Intake runner volume is different...205 vs. 225, usully run a 225 with more than stock cubes or a large cam, I would stick with the 205's with a mid-range cam as your 224/230
