So why the 225s over the 205s?

I like my TSP PRC LS6 Heads. I know that Terminator Heads are great too.

If you were staying NA, running 2x/yr at the track, and theoretically street racing on occasion, what heads would you buy? Let's go one more...

1 - what heads would you buy?
(I'm assuming this includes AFR, TFS, ETP, etc.)
ET Performance hands down.
2 - what heads would you buy under $2k?
TSP 200cc terminators.
3 - what heads would you buy under $1500?
(yes, Darts are under $1500 if you look in the right place)
spend the extra money to get either the TSP or ET heads.

The results on TFS's dyno, back to back from a stock head were roughly

Dart 205 30 HP
AFR 205 @66cc 40 HP
ET 215 @ 62cc 50 HP
TFS 215 @ 64cc 60 HP

and the TFS 215's carried the power out 300 RPM further without float as compared to the ET 215's......

Some of the ported stock castings on the same dyno were 40 HP
