A great match for that cam without having to flycut is the PRC 2.5 5.3L heads. The smaller combustion chamber and 220cc intake runner make it a great cylinder head choice for a stock cubic in engine. We have seen this head with an MS3 combo go 450+ with just standard bolt ons time and time again. With a FAST intake and UD pulley, I have seen them go 480+ to the tires in 6-speed cars. We have the heads fully assembled for $1209.99 + shipping. I'm guessing that you already have springs with the cam so we can send you the heads with seats and seals already installed so you can simply move your springs and retainers to the new heads! Let me know if you have any other questions!

i would say since your running an TSP cam, your better off going with a TSP heads along with it.
