650 demon,mild cam, l/t bbk headers, x-pipe with 40 series delta flow, msd ignition, electric fan, underdrive pullies on order, im looking to get new twisted wedge heads in the near future even though my brother swears up and down gt40 heads will do just fine, he says he hears to many horror stories about alum heads

Just never let the engine overheat becausee the heads will warp. Other than that, twisted wedges should suit your setup much better.

The Trick Flow or AFR 165cc heads are way better that the GT40's

I'd dump the gear drive for a timing chain.

My reason is why spend almost 250 bucks for something you dont need?

It does help the timing be a little bit more accurate but mostly it just makes noise. If you want super accurate timing you can get a normal timing chain and a MSD crank trigger set up for cheaper than the gear drive minus the noise...

Ok did not know that but it makes sense.. Noise = frequency = harmonics..
Thanx...
