Since swapping the 235 for a 261 it would seem your goal is more power/performance. That is why I am going with a 261 and all discussions I have heard here and from industry performance experts is that the 848 provides the most power/performance due to slightly higher compression. I have not even thought about any other head for the 848 seems to be the obvious best choice.
