Head/cam combo???

I own a 2002 C5 Vette. It already had the LS6 Intake manifold. I have the money to purchase a head/cam combo. What should I go with?

I live in california and need to keep it smog legal. Any advice or steer in the right direction is a definate help to me. I want to see at least 380rwhp if not more. can this be done?

I made 461 with afr205's and a g5x3 in my c5. I was also running kooks headers, u/d pulley, and a fast 90 with an ls2 t/b. HTH

I dont think you need heads to reach your goal but if you added them too it would be nasty! BTW his car has been trapping 122mph in the heat. Makes me want a 3050lb. car.
