I may not have been comparing apples to apples but this is what I was comparing:
CHI "complete" heads
CHI 3V 208 R/A 221424
$2999
AFD 2V "complete" 205 64cc heads
$2150
The way I interpreted the CHI website was the 3V heads which I was looking at, did require a special intake. The CHI street 2V heads work with stock/aftermarket 2V intakes. I may be wrong, but that's what I was comparing. But, I am building a Clevor setup and already have the intake.
Also, I don't recall the CHI 2V street heads being available when I ordered AFD in May-Oct of 08'.
"CHI is proud to announce the all new Street Master 2V cylinder head. Designed to work with standard 2V intake and exhaust manifolding the 2V Street Master cylinder heads have no equal."
I would love to test the flow on the AFD heads, but I have no experience with this. I'll ask the engine builder if he can check the flow.
Both manufacturers have changed the heads for the better, so I hope my AFD purchase reaches my goals. I don't think anyone can go wrong with either head combo.
what isn't made in China? Geez at this point I think the only thing internal on my motor that wasn't made in china was the.... crap... cant think of anything.. maybe the main girdle from canton.. lol
WOW... Trick Flow GenX ... everybody is making Cleveland heads now... nice.. lots of options..
have a happy new year!
