Hool97,

I talked to Tony Mamao at SEMA a couple of weeks ago (very cool guy who reall knows his stuff) and they should be coming out very soon.

Not the best heads for a 346 unless you are running a really big cam and want to give up some low end over hte 205's.

Mike

Wrong. The 225's will far outflow the 205's starting at 3000 RPM (as was reported on ls1tech after testing). The 225's look bad ****..

The first set of 225s coming out are gonna have a 72cc combustion chamber I think. I dont see why anyone would want that except for people doing FI.

Then its supposed to be another 2 months for the read deal heads to come out.

That's *exactly* why I'm interested in a good set of heads, to compliment my D1-SC setup!!!

AFR will have a 225 to suite your NA needs very shortly - if they don't already.

Me too - between a mild cam and the AFR 225's to go along with my D1SC ... mmmmmmm.

There is a thread called "The AFR Thread" started by Tony Mamo. He indicated that he is going to post any updated information under that thread when it is available.
