I would recommend the Stage II 5.3 head. This will keep your budget in check and still give you great performance. Use a 6.0 head gasket. As far as the cam, we carry a 232/230 .580 .580 110 LSA that would go well with this set-up.

I have unported LS6 heads on my 6.0L and a traditional split cam with a 110 lsa. On motor, mine makes good power/torque (up to 410HP/400TQ now) - enough to move my 3,700# car to 11.5's @ 116+ in semi-good air.
I have heard from others that the tight lsa is not good for the spray, but when I had the cam ground, I was told with the extra cubic inches the 110 would be fine for up to 150HP shot - is that so - opinions?? Not trying to hijack, but thought it might help all in this post to explain the statement made above
