Default What Heads For My Setup?

What heads would you recomend for my setup besides AFR's or ETP's. I need something that with work with my "baby cam." I'd also like to bump the compression up to around 10.5 or so. I need something that just insnt going to make big peak numbers but decent low and mid range power also.

I have a 2004 GTO Automatic with the following mods:

220/224 .597/.589 113 LSA EDC Cam
Patriot Dual "Gold" valve Springs
Kooks LT 1.75 Headers with cats
K&N Intake
SLP P&P Throttle Body
Borla Cat-Back Exhaust

We can do you a set of our CNC ported 243 castings. These will put your compression right 10.5-1. They have excellent flow qualities. We can fit them with Ferrea 6000 series 2.02"/1.57" valves, bronze guides, and set them up so you can just swap your Patriot Golds on to them. These will run you $1115.00 shipped to you anywhere in the US. Here is a link to some that a customer recently bought:

Take a serious look at the PRC 2.5 R's. They are working great for me.
