Default What heads for my set up??

I'm sure I'm not the 1st person to ask this question, but what heads would work the best with my set up?? Here are my stats:

230/230 .578/.578 111* cam
Comp pushrods
Dynatech LTs w/ off road pipe
Loudmouth
Moser 12 w/ 4.11's
100hp "dry" 5177 kit (will upgrade to a 125 TNT kit)
LS6 intake.

Allthough I don't drive this car daily, I do drive it alot. I've Power Tour "Long Hauled" it in 2002 and 2003. So it must be able to be, somewhat, streetable. Any thoughts??

From what I have read, Absolute Speed 5.3 stage 2 or Patriot LS6 style Stage 2 heads. They seem to make the most power. I use stock heads and am waiting for AFR heads later this year.
