Yeah with you have the Trickflow intake it probably wouldn't be a bad idea at all to go with the TW heads...I like matching parts.

However, I'm a big fan of AFR's which is why I picked them...

Either head will flow nicely and are of good quality. I just have my "pick"...

I'd go with trick flow if I were you, they are a great all around head.

If you know you want to stay NA and never want to go blower or turbo, than I would recommend AFR heads, as they will increase your compression.

If you know you don't want to stay NA and you will be adding a blower or turbo, I really like the Holley Systemax head, it flows great and also drops compression.
