Default Best N/A heads for ls1

I have an ls1 a4 with a 230/232 112 cam, fast 90/90, 3200 stall, 3:90 gears. Need to know what are the best set of budget heads? I've seen the power with 243 and I want a little more than that. Any ideas? I know 799 are budget 243 basically.

If you have 243/799 heads, then have them ported. If you don't have them, you can buy them already ported from a place like Texas Speed or TEA. A lot depends on your budget. Remember, everything starts with the heads. Build around them and buy the best heads you can afford.

Look at Advanced Induction to CNC Port a set of 243's. They do very nice work.
