I would go with the AFR heads, the performer rpm intake and a BBK 70mm tb. If I was fuel injected.

AFR 185s, Trick Flow Track Heat or RPMII intake, and an Accufab 70/75mm throttle body.

That would be a really bad idea...heads and intake would be excellent on a larger displacement motor...bad idea on a lil old 306. AFR 165's are an excellent head, I'm biased towards the Eddys, they've worked REALLY nice with my supporting parts. Read up all you can and know what you want from the car before you just go spending money on parts that won't work to their best together.

Your RPMs are in the same class of heads as the 185s. Not only that, but your intake is in the same class as the ones I listed also. What's your point?

Very very wrong...my heads flow JUST the same as the 165's and that's ported..my intake ported flows JUST as much if not little less than an RPM. The components you've listed would kill the flow velocity..just too large for a 306...don't mean to sound matter of fact, but your indicated combo with his cam would be VERY unfriendly on the street..more a 331/347 combo.

the twisted wedge heads will be very close to the same port cross section as the afr 185, i would say thats the only way to go, i would never buy a 165 personally, no where to go when you want more, unless you start shelling out cash. with the right cam, the 185 will cost nothing in the way of lost low end, and will nearly always have a bit more up top. I personally think the 165 is great for a 289

anyway, if your worried about the future, and how your combo will inevitably change, go fer the afr 185's, and the rpm setup. if your going to leave it alone, and wanna save 100-200 now, get the twisted wedge, they have awesome midlift flow, and will work quite well with the right low duration, high lift cam...the key is right!

dont spend 260 bux on an OTS cam before talking to a cam designer, for an extra 40-80 bux you can have the RIGHT cam for the setup.


good luck!
