The part number is 3037. I was just wondering I'm just doing an HCI for my fox

Depends on the cost for the heads. Damn near everything is an improvement over the stock heads.

If some one is giving you a set for free then go with it. If you absolutely are on a super tight budget buy a bare set and take them to a local GOOD machine shop to have them built with good parts so you know what you are getting. Be careful with the cheap prices of the assembled heads on the internet. That means the valvetrain components are cheap.

Honestly, find a set of used AFR 165's or 185's if you can't afford new. Even the 165's will run circles around those 3037's 190cc all day long. The ports are big but the velocity is poor. Big ports, low velocity on a small 302 means poor torque/horsepower unless your going to spin it to the moon and run 4.56 gears. Just my 2cents
