Progress Thread Heads/cam decision

[RileyDymond]

I’m looking for some advice about a nice set of heads to compliment my SC ‘89 fox and or a cam as well. I’m looking for a set that doesn’t require different pistons (currently stock) or any other “deep-digging” work. Current mods are: 340lph pump, 42lb injectors, v3 si SC, 75mm throttle body, trick flow upper lower intake, e-ford performance cam, bbk shorty headers, flow master h-pipe, megasquirt 2, 3.75 gears, t56 magnum. dyno’d @324 (hub) I’m looking to get around 400rwhp. Just a cruiser car that gets ripped on. Thanks in advance!

If that's the goal afr 165's or twisted wedge, 11r if you want to show off a bit.

AFR Enforcers as cast.

Do the stock pistons have enough valve clearance for the 11r and what would be a good cam lift with them as well

Depends on the cam but yes you can get away with alot on the 11r do to the valve angles. Cams up to you, ed at flow tech induction does some nice grinds that will meet your goals and probably have better driveability then most shelf cams and if your springing for 11r's better to have a cam speced for the combo and goals. He did mild 218/220 ish cam for me years ago that did over 400 on an engine dyno na with first gen afr 165's that idled and drove pretty much like a stocker.
