What would be the best windsor head for lift under .600". Most cam i would ever run would prolly be .560 or so

There isn't lots of difference between the AFR 185, Roush 200, Vic Jr at .500 (about 11cfm intake, but 65 cfm exhast, the world's have low exhaust #)

will that much be a noticeable difference between any of them? would the AFR 205's be too big for my 351W?

Considering you are looking at cams of that size I think the 205's would be a good match.

would they be too big for a 282S or 270S, as in this is what i will be running for now, then when i get heads will be using 1.7 rockers

would they be a dog off the line for streeting?

Dubz,

Those cams match up well to the Performer rpm heads.

but in all likelyhood the car will not go fast enough (as they never do) and i will want to swich cams to something bigger, and I fear that the rpm heads won't cut it.

How about the Roush 200s Can anyone tell me if those are the heads that require special headers??? I see that they make strait and angle plug holes for the chebbys Is that true for us ford lovers to put more selection of headers on not just the $$$ hookers ?
