It really depends on your budget.
I would try a set of 180 cc Aluminum imported heads that are CNC ported.
The CNC heads sell for around $1,200.
That would be loaded up with 2.02/1.6 valves,Crane springs good to .550 lift,7* degree H.D. keepers,7* steel retainers,Teflon seals,5/16ths guide plates,3/8ths studs.
If you want to get buy cheaper order a bare set of the Dart Iron Eagle S/S heads.
Do a lot of bowl work yourself, do work around the valve guide etc,polish the combustion chamber.
Load the heads up with 2.02/1.6 valves same valves springs locks and retainers etc.listed above.
You should be able to get them done for around $750 if you do a lot of the port work yourself.
I have gotten over 450 hp with the mods. done to the Dart heads above on a 383 using a mech. cam and flat top pistons.

i aint never done a set of heads
