Default Need help with Head choices...

I'm looking at getting some heads for my car but don't know what to get. I'm not confused as to what brand to get (maybe AFR or TFS), I'm just confused as to what CC to get to match my cam. My cam is a custom by Pat G 224/226 .610/.584 111+4 the cam put down 372/382 on a Mustang dyno and so far on one pass at the track made an 11.99 @ 114 before cam was 12.2 @ 111 ...
I'm not sure if it will be worth matching heads to this cam or not. The last thing I want to do is buy heads for this and still not be happy. Should I ditch the cam and get a new combo, or will heads really wake this cam up?
Please help a confused horsepower junkie, I can't get enough of it

There are some very nice heads to wake that up for you. I'm carrying the full lineup of WCCH now. Whats your budget is the first thing we want to look at.

Price doesn't really matter, I've noticed you get what you pay for when it comes to heads. I've actually been very impressed with Trickflow heads. They seem to be outperforming some of the other top brands out there

hay man dont mix things up ,trickflow,afr,darts etc..its (AS CAST) , the TFS or TSp is GM ported heads .
you cant go wrong with as cast heads ,if i where you i would diffntly go for the trickflow or the AFR 205 small port ,and get those heads milled to 59cc or so to get that compresstion to 11.1 or .2 . good luck
