Default HELP!!!! ready for heads and cam, need advice!!!!

I've been searching the forums and I feel that I still have no clue on what to narrow my decision on . I am looking for heads/cam that fit these criteria:
1) Lots more power (of course)
2) would work well on a daily driver (although this isn't my daily driver, I would like it to drive like one as much as possible).
3) money doesn't matter, if I'm going to get the h/c I want to be happy regardless of price.

btw.. the car is a 98 ws6 m6 and so far the mods include slp lm, lid, kooks headers & catted y... 338.1 rwhp and 347.6 tq

if anyone can help me out I would be very greatful!!!

stephanie i'd try reading jrp's mod guides. they are very helpful and should point you in the right direction. go into the Enthusiast sectiona and you'll find some stickies he's posted....click on his name and you'll find the guides in his profile. also, try posting this in the enthusiast or internals section. this section is mainly for board support questions, regarding user name changes, glitches with the actual board program, program suggestions, et cetera. good luck!!

AFR 205cc Heads Or PRC Stage 2 5.3 heads are great, I think a 231/237 .598 .595 112lsa cam would be good also to keep the drivability decent just my opinion I wouldnt go any smaller than this cam.
