I am looking for a new set of heads for my 94 trans am. I have a hand ported set that have a little piston damage. Instead of spending the money to fix them i was wanting more horsepower out of an aftermarket set while still giving me room to grow in the future. Ive been tossing around AFR heads. I was thinking that the street ported 210's would out flow my ported ones and give me lots of room for porting. any other suggestions before i sink money into fixing it would be great.

Thanks Chris

 

Trick Flow. Guys getting really good results with those lately. They port out from 195CC to about 215-218CC's and have GREAT mid-lift numbers. A bare casting set is about $850, plus porting, you're out for around the price of a set of AFR's non-ported.

 

Exactly how much are you looking to grow in the future, people do ot give stock castings enough credit. There are a handful of vendors here who can give you 400RWHP with stock castings ported and a custom cam on a stock shortblock, imagine what those heads can do on a stroker.

That said IF I were planning to go further than stock castings could take me Trickflows would be the next step AFR is not as wonderful as their reputation.

 

im looking for 400 now and the ability to hit 500 with work

 

A stock set ported by Loyd Elliot will take you past 400RWHP for 1/2 the cost.

 

ya but i want room to grow that is the whole point
