They flow 340 intake 250 exhaust with 70 cc combustion chambers. I'd get the compression down low as I have with a matching set of diamond racing pistons that have a -36cc dish. This along with the heads will yield me approximatly a 8.0 compression on a 408. Ready for 15psi street pump gas and 20 race 50/50 mix.

I have TEA stg 3 CNC AFR185 on a 357 motor thats NA! well n20 is in the works but you get the point. I went that route because i had a small budget and parts were cheap. What is your goal??? Odviously smog isnt a concern so why not some AFR225, Dart pro-1 225cc, maybe some TFS Track heats/highports from a reputable porter or many other larger heads, then you could keep the boost down low, run on pump gas and run a 9 with a chassis,driver/suspension,and tires too mach.
