I've looked into those with not much info other than magazines.

I know that they are originally the DART LS heads and the consensus then was that the 205 needed work to make them work, but, the 225 was just OK

The Comp site at the PRI show didn't have any heads or info that I saw/found

I did see and talk to the folks from Texas Speed on their heads and the guys from AFR about theirs. Both have some nice heads on the blocks

I would just buy new LSA heads and have them CNC ported.

just pick a head to work within your specs
meaning you don't need a mega flowing head
you want to make sure you have high port velocity if you want to build the low end response
i'm toying with the idea of a set of 205 AFR heads
