New AFR heads.

Has anyone tested these yet? They look real nice. I would like to hear what Toni Mamo has to say about them.

Been doing some research on these heads and it seems AFR doesn't know what rockers, shaft or otherwise fit them.

Did I mention it has heavy intake valves? 124 grams for the intake and 99 for the exhaust. If you look into the ports with the 2 valves removed the line of site into the area under the valve (the cylinder area) is amazing, the most I've ever seen on an LS head if not everything else, the exhaust side you can see nearly 360* of seat area from the upper portion of the exh. port exit. These things look like they could move some air.
