It will definately run better with head work. I'm not sure what your definition of not much more money for the heads. You'll end up spending approximately $1000-$3000 more depending on how radical you want to go. If you do want to just go with a cam I suggest the F1 cam from Speedtek. There are cars with stock heads making 402-410 rwhp and around 380LBtq with the F1 cam and the normal bolt-ons.
