that sounds like a good setup, both sets of heads will do you justice. you'll make good power with that setup!!

The TFS heads are a little thicker and require different length pushrods, 7.50 I think, but better look into that some more. Not sure if the AFR heads are similar or not since they also have a thicker deck. I would get better valve springs with that cam for insurance purposes. I like the Trick Flow CNC 215 better than the 220 as cast heads. The Texas Speed PRC 215 heads are good too. You gonna run custom headers?
