If I had to do it agian I would get LS6 heads again and not think twice. I would like to see that those TFS heads can do though. I personaly have not been impressed by AFR's in N/A aplications.
Are you saying your 10.41. run was a N/A run with LS6 heads?

i believe so..but he has cartek 4x heads which are probably the best LS6 heads you can get , they are also some of the most expensive. I think they cost more then Afr's do.

went with the same ... very streetable and a lot of power. It's a fine combo for sure, but, they came out with the 225's just after I bought the 205's ... wondering if I should swap up.

Everyone saying "You'll only get a few more HP" aren't specifying where in the rev range they're talking. If they're talking peak, they're not looking at much of the big picture. Of course the same flow through a smaller runner will give better torque throughout the powerband.
