Default LXR 235cc .vs. TFS 235cc anybody have input on what i should get?

Like the title says LXR 235cc 11* heads or TFS 235cc heads... Cathedral port milled to 60cc my car currently is making 568/512 with the out of box 15 year old AFR big bore 225cc heads... im still running stock rockers but if i get new heads ill def be putting a roller tip rocker on. Any info or input would be great mods in sig.

Send your current Afr's back and get them updated.

They don't need to be opened up to 245cc to improve them. I think your making great power with the cubes your at now. I really don't see you gaining much from just adding another set of heads. Unless you want to turn some more Rpm's and run a different Intake Manifold.

I still think putting a better flowing head on will gain power these things are like 10-15 yrs old.... I wish I could do a head comparison by changing them and getting on the dyno

I would have them redone/updated with a good valve job and a little hand port if need be. I think you are making good power now with a combo that obviously works good.

I wouldn't mess with success, That cam seems to be working well with those heads and intake. Could get pretty expensive to just find a few extra ponies.

Send them to Tony. He'll "Mamofy" them and make them better than the out-of-the-box 245s. You'll probably pick up 10-15rwhp from his magic.
