I am going to buy a set of aftermarket heads, adn I am not sure what is the best for my application. I was told to go with a set of cast iron heads because of my supercharger and the heat issue. The cast iron will expand the same rate as the block, which will prlong my head gaskets. I know this is true, but is that my best bet? What are your thoughts? swapping out the pistons to clear bigger valves is an option, just not something I want to do if I don't have to

Check my signature. I only have 1500 miles on the current setup. I had the 9 p.s.i kit on my old engine, it was bone stock except for flowmasters. That same s.c kit on my current setup is only making 6 psi(which makes sense). I would say keep the boost low and maybe ditch the zex, and go aluminum.

AFR advertises a 3/4" deck, which they say makes their heads an excellent choice for blower applications. But I have no opinion on which head is best, as I am not allowed to.
