I just came across I good set of AFR 185s. Would those work good with my car or do I have to have AFR 165s?

I'd go e-brocks if they are the new ones.

I'm a male. I just came across a set of AFR 185 for less than the trickflows and e-brocks. I don't know much about AFR except that they are suppose to be really good. The heads are in good shape. I wanted to know what you guys thought. If I am going to spend $1000 I'm going to research and get the best deal out of it. I'm am a freshman in college so money is tight.

to answer your question, the 185's are too much for your car at this point.

Didnt you ask that in the last couple threads you started about diff heads?

185's are way to much for a n/a 302, or even a centrifugal boosted 302/306. PLUS you will need flycut pistons to run afr 185's.

Afr 165's will preform the best out of any head no doubt. They are the most $$$ though, but you get what you pay for.

out of the trickflow's or edel's i would go edel's.. They will perform better on a 302 with the smaller valves.

I might have asked that. I just don't want to mess up when buying heads. Thanks for the replys.

Sorry about my writing, I type fast. I am actually in the honors programs. Believe it or not. I am just lazy when I write on these forums.

I vote for Trick flows. I had mine for over 8 years now. There were pedestal mount. I then got them machined for stud mount. Never had a problems with them yet.

Good luck.

the pedestal mount heads were known for having valve guide problems. you must be one of the lucky ones.
