I'm glad you sold your first addition. Now it is my addiction.

I was consdering a real nice set of CNC ported stock casting heads for my new engine. After doing my research, it seems no matter how you look at it you can NOT beat an AFR head as long as you can get that particular AFR head for about 500- 600 less then they retail for. In my compairison I looked for a stock casting head that with the same valve configeration as any particular AFR head that would outflow an AFR head and they do NOT exist. I paid closer attention to the low and mid lift numbers but still payed some attention to peak flow numbers and the AFR head waxed the *** of every cathedral port cylinder head out there when equally equipped with the same valve train.

I picked up my brand new AFR Part Number 1630 225 LSx heads with 72cc combustion chambers, with the Upgraded AFR Part Number 8019 Springs for $1940 shipped. I can't help myself, I see parts and I gotta have em.

here we are talking about serious addictions and you come along and think that you spending thousands upon thousands of bucks and three 1000+ HP vehicles is an actual problem. Shame on you! LOL
