Dont get hung up on flow numbers with a small frame turbo! You dont want the biggest runner head out there. Smaller runners provide velocity which ='s spool

They should work just fine, if your using a standalone, check your duty cycle once you get going, dont be surprised if your running a 90% duty cycle at WOT. Hell, you might actually be maxing them out. Might want to look into some flow matched 72lbers.

Whats his duty cycle? As long as the injectors dont starve the cylinders causing you to throw the pistons through the block being so lean, then all is well.

Don't know how he makes 800+ with only 60's
any way
Where did you hear that the AFR's crack? Can you provide a link?
Coin toss on the heads. I think that the TFS heads have the most potential. Pick whatever head has the thickest decks and the best valve train.
