This winter I'm going to be buying parts for the stang, but I'm not sure what heads to get. I don't really care about the price, as long as they give the best results. What do you all think?

I was thinking maybe AFR?

On a all motor 302 based engine, it seems the AFR 165's are the best choice. You can't go wrong with the TFS's either.

Eddy heads are nice too, they are monsters with a good cam right up to 6000rpm.

um well, i havent really got this set up going quite right yet. just finally got the car going, still working the bugs out. the car was stolen and all the parts were stolen 6 mo's ago. before, i had the same exact parts except that i had Street Heat intake, 1.7 rr, 73mm MAF, 65mm TB, and equal length headers. i ran 13.3xx @ 108.xx. dont really remember. that was without tuning as well and with stock suspension (broken upper control arm).

I've got the TFS heads primarily because they were all that would fit my 86, un-notched, flat top, stock pistons. No complaints here.
