Just wondering... I have a 91 gt pretty much stock. I just completed a 5 lug/ disc brake conversion and I have in boxes BBK long tube headers and H pipe w/o cats and trick flow street heat intake and bbk t-body with spacer. I'm thinking I want to throw some heads in there as well, what heads will will go well with this combo...What will give me as much drivable hp as possible?

im gonna go outside the box on this one. me and slow95gt where at the swap meet this weekend and a vendor had a set of AFR 185's and a set of patriot performance 185 heads and IMO the patriot heads where every bit as good. the runners where almost identical the chambers where damn near exact and also IMO and slow95gt's the bowls where smoother on the patriots. and for a $900 i would deff get a set of them over the afr's. i have twisted wedges and i love them but if i had to out right buy some right now i would get the patriots just becasue they are so cheap.

Did you miss the whole Patriot cylinder head controversy that went on here maybe a year ago? I don't have any direct experience with Patriot heads, but from all the bad things I've heard about them, I wouldn't risk my money on them nor would I suggest them to anyone else. If you do a search on them, you'll see the same 6 words over and over again "you get what you pay for".
