    No, there is no street racing here! And Im certainly not worried about hondas. As I dont rev this thing very high, the 2.25's would have no value to me, and the extra weight, although not much, is an added detriment.

    The cam you have should make power to 6,000 rpm's with good heads.
    If you put those small heads on the engine you might as well pull out the mech. roller cam and put a hyd. cam in it.
    I would guess those oval port heads and your mech. roller cam would be done before well before 5,000 rpm's making any power.
