Default help me decide what heads to get.....

its between the AFR 205cc and the edelbrock terminator 200cc from TSP. I would mill both heads to 58cc. I plan to run the TSP 228r on a 112lsa. What heads would you guys choose?? what would give better p/v clearance. Just thought i would ask you guys your opinion. tks guys

Try calling TSP and see if they have any well proven combos with either head with that cam. See if they can port out either head to better match the cam profile.

Why just TSP? It's absolutely silly to rule out proven speed shops like LGmotorsports or Futral. Not that TSP is bad. It's just that people say to call them 'cause they hear the name a lot on here. Just 'cause you hear the name doesn't mean they're the best. Look at who performs consistently, and repeatedly.

I do not think you want to mill to 58cc if you have a stock block
If so with that cam you would be at 9.04 DCR.
Way much for 91 octane and borderline for 93.
The Edelbrock at 62cc will give a perfect 8.6 DCR without milling. I would say go for that.
