    So it looks like the afr 185s with cnc porting is the choice. Now to go play the lottery to afford them.

    Ryan, looks like we will have some more in common. Now I need to pull my heads off to see what I got going on. I do remember I have Keith Black hyperetectic pistons. And I got a Comp 292 cam. Rods were shot peened and that is bout all i remember. Motor been together since 92 and I have not even had to take a valve cover off. Been the most reliable motor I ever owned.
