Default AFR Heads?

Good evening C5 Gang,
Is anyone running or done research on the AFR 210 LS1 Enforcer Heads? I know they’re an as-cast and AFR used the 243 heads as base line in developing but not finding much on real life use.

fyi, already running a new BTR Stage1 cam and LG Motorsport 1 7/8 headers/exhaust

Thanks

A buddy bought a pair bare. No valves, but finished seats etc.

He flowed them and said they beat the advertised flow by a lot. With minor bowl blend and guide shaping, the mid lift numbers improved.

By comparison he flowed a set of 243’s he ported and the AFR was better. Not much, but better.

And they are certainly better than a stock 243
