OK, Brent: I see you point here. After looking at the flow charts, the AFR's look like they're a step up from the Vic Jr's. and the Vic's seems like an OK choice for the 306 build up.

Agree on the Cleveland heads. Everyone talk about the Aussie heads, but what about the Edelbrock, and even more, the Trick flow Cleveland heads? Let's take a Trick flow 190cc set of heads; they will outperform ANY? set of windsor type head, I'd guess. Even a set of 220- 225 AFR's? And also- is there a set of spacers available to use a Windsor inlet manifold on the Cleveland heads?

Anyway; I just popped in to say I have a suggestion to mention; one solution to make it a little more easy to adapt larger primary exhaust header tubes to the Vic. Jr.'s. By using a smaller diameter bolt & nut, it makes more room for the tubes. I fond ARP 100-1401 which have 5/16 diameter on the outside while still 3/8" into the heads.

Anyone else tried this?
