Default What heads

I want more power and am looking at a new set of heads because I can't find anyone around that can port or polish. That is, everyone says they can do it but no one even has a flow bench. Anyway...

What brands/part # do you guys have in your vette? I was looking at AFR but its quite expensive. Edelbrock has a set now #61909 and 2108-cam that I was looking at. I'm a novice at this so I welcome input. Also, on my car with long tubes down the road, what kind or HP could I expect to see. cheers.

Before you commit to AFRs do a search here-I've read some nasty things about them lately-true some people, in fact most like them, but alot of guys have been having problems too.

Check into the group purchase going on in the C4 parts section.
There are plenty of 11sec LT1s running p/p lt1 heads.
