Well i was planning on geting the AFR 165's but i cant come up with 1500 dollars so it looks like those are out. What head can i get that are close enough to the 165's but dont cost as much. The package will be 92 302 H.0 with rpm airgap intake, e303 cam, and 625 road demon carb......with the AFR heads i would of been around 400+ flywheel hp. Are there any heads out there that can match the AFR but are considerably cheaper???

Get a hold of Thumper460. He does a lot of work on heads and could price something out for you. May be a cheaper option for you.

I personally haven't used them, but many other stangnetters have.

You should be able to get pretty close to the AFR 165's with either the Edlebrock or Ford Racing aluminum heads, with prices between $1000 and $1200.

The iron heads from World Products are said to be pretty good and are much cheaper at about $800.

Cheapest of all would be CNC'd stock Ford iron heads. These guys (http://www.powerheads.com/products.html) have them for $695 a pair.
