Hi all. I am planning to do a head swap on my 85 GT next year. I'm still trying to figure out what i want to go with. I have 4 heads in mind I might go with. I'm thinking either a set of Trick Flow 170's, Trick Flow 11R, AFR 165's or AFR 185's. My power goal for this car is around 280 rwhp. I want to still use the stock H.O. cam for now. I know all four heads are excellent options, but what I'm concerned with is PTV clearance. I would like to run 1.7:1 roller rockers and still use the factory "powered by ford" valve covers. I'm definitely looking to bump up the compression ratio and stop burning through all of my oil. My valve stem seals are shot and I still have excellent compression pressures across all cylinders. Any recommendations for what heads I should go with?
