Default Looking for Ported Heads Need help

I am looking for a set of ported head that are BARE and fitted for stock size valves. I had to replace most of my valvetrain almost 2 years ago due to a misshift. I have aftermarket pushrods, valves, springs and retainers on the stock heads now. So if I can find a set of ported bare head to move all my parts to and not waste the parts I have now. I plan to rebuild the motor and got with AFR head, but I rather do that all at once and when I have time. I know Patriot and a few others offered this option, but I can't find the webpage and a price. Can anyone help? Also, what would be a good cam for serious power and nitrous use.

The LS6 heads I might look at, but the AFRs have 2.02/1.60 valves. I was looking to possibly using a pair of 5.3L heads to raise the compression.
