I am planning on getting a new motor but I don’t know what way to go should I go with a set of gt40p heads with a b cam or should I go with AFR’s 165 with an X cam right know I don’t have to worry about smog but I don’t know how long it will last so would it still pass smog with the AFR’s and that cam I plan on getting it tuned as soon as possible thanks for any info

Do tou care about makng power? The AFR's will absolutely kill the GT40p combo, even w/ a stock cam (which I recommend for a daily driver w/1.7 rockers.)

BTW- AFR165's are smog legal. Doubt an X cam w/ pass the sniffer.

AFR 165s and 185s are smog legal. My 347 with 185s passes with no problems. Not even close.

Stock cam retarded 4 degrees w/ 1.7 rockers. You get the power w/out the idle issues.
