    Heads for a supercharged 5.0

    I have a '91 LX 5.0 with a Vortech Supercharger, FMS B303 Cam, and Cobra upper and lower intake, with stock heads. I wanted to upgrade to Al heads so save some weight and get some more power, but I didn't know which ones to get. I want to retain the stock pistons and not modify them in any way. Which heads will bolt right up to the stock block and pistons?

    Many. A set of TFS Twisted Wedges would work well, and while you are at it get rid of that horrible camshaft.

    What Mark said. A friend has had good luck with Edelbrock heads, but I don't think they make as much power as the Twisted Wedge heads. I have TFS TW's on my '66, and they get along very well with the Paxton.
