Sounds like you will have a nice build. Jim is good guy and has excellent prices on all the AFR heads. When I'm ready to go with a bigger cylinder head that's who I will work with.

Jim is top notch. I've bought to sets of heads from him and wouldn't hesitate to buy a third if I needed it.

You'll find a very good and real friend,he has shared lots of his knowledge with me,helped to get my heads as well (1040s) and now we are getting a second set,plus he's always there to help.
A truly class act.-
Hats off to Jim (tpi421vette)

I got my AFR 195s from Jim. The price was great but most important he got me headed in the right direction with a plan for my build. I couldn't be happier.
