What would you choose?


I am stuck between getting a nitrous kit to go faster now or some afr heads to go fast all motor later.What would you choose so many decisions so little time.I need to figure it out by Monday and I was leaning towards the nitrous because I dont really have use for the afr 185 since my dart need a lot more flow than that.I was going to use them for a 306 I am building right now but I also have some gt40x type heads right now that could go on the 306.What kind of more power will the afr heads do over the gt40x's?Thanks for all your help

Your Dart will not need more flow than what the 185's can give..

Cool I will use them for the dart I already have some gt40x type heads but they will not flow for my dart stroker.Oh and I have someone I am getting the heads from they are pretty much new complete with rocker arms,and new ARP bolts.I will pick them up Monday night or Tuesday afternoon.I had the chance to get another dart iron eagle block but the 9.5 deck 351 for $1700 instead of my sportsman 8.2
