I wanted some feedback from my fellow ford owners on whats would be the best out of the box bolt on and go heads to get for a 347? I currently have ported edelbrock performers and wanna "step my game up" So lets see what you guys think.

Let me change it up a little. The best heads for a 347 that cost 1500 and under and that will bolt on with no real modifications. The fuel system I will be running will be 30lb injectors and a 255 fuel pump. The rest of my current mods are a x cam, longtubes, track heat intake, 70mm tb and catless xpipe. and if possble include exact model because tfs makes alot of different heads

It really doesn't matter which heads you get if you cant drive. Besides, you got a wayz to go before you catch me and lets not even think about John B! You'll never beat either one of use! But no, get the 185's so it can be a close race... Oh, and some driving scillz.

Next time you think about talking shit,I suggest you take some english classes to step up your grammar skills. I almost forgot every so often you post on here. But just so you know I have no intention of trying to beat you or John for that matter. I just want a "RELIABLE"! everyday semi quick street car. I guess you missed my thread about putting on a wet kit too huh?

If you look at the fastest N/A EFI 347's on this site, you'll see that the best heads and bang for the buck for that matter, are Vic Jr's, hands down.

So because I was unwilling to launch my Cobra with its stock irs at 4500 rpm I cant drive? Thats cool then, I still got low 12s out of it and I know I can get more as it stands right now. Plus I have a/c, power windows, a nice system, comfy leather and suede seats and it starts up every time. Not to mention that I can drive it to and from the track as well as across the country if I like without worrying about getting stuck or my car overheating. An another thing, If you are such a great driver John Force jr. then why did you tell me you mis-shifted your car when you got an AUTOMATIC!

OK, ok, you win! But even though I shifted pass 2nd, to 3rd, my car still went faster than yours (both)ever will! "On that run" On a serious note, get the afr's. You'll be happy. Oh, and I will beat you know who, just wait!

I think I will get either the Afr 185, trick flow R series 185 or the Trick Flow track heat heads. But I am leaning towards buying CNC ported versions rather than out of the box versions. I dont know as of yet. I need to fix a couple of other things on it and clean it up a little more too. I want my shit to look and run good too
