I build a CnC Edlebrock victor that is perfict for your combo, ..
will run better then the other heads but mostly because we are a custom
shop and I personally do every valve job on every head that we do.

After carefully examining the advantages, disadvantages, and getting deep into the technicnical aspects of them, I too will highly recommend that Race Flow Development (RFD) 24 degeree Edlebrock from only Curtis Boggs above all the rest in that competitive price range.
I should be close to ready for dyno testing these in appx 2 months, if things go according to plans.
So we are putting our (My Customer's) money where our mouth is, and also our reputatuion where our mouth is by using these heads. That is how sold on them I am.

well finally got a hold of a dealer for afr ,and in order to get 114 cc heads they cnc them to 121cc, then they shave them down about .042 ,flat mill they call it.to achieve the 114 cc. So there is only 1 casting that they use for all bbc heads.Too bad, I was looking forward to a smaller chamber.

No one has a special chamber for 114cc we just mill the deck.
that being said, .. it's really no big deal to mill the deck of a good
aftermarket head .040" or so, .. heck we angle mill the Victor
and Dart castings over .100" at times.
