Default New 06 GTO

I just picked a 06 GTO. I had just finished putting together a combo for my 98 SS and i traded it in on the GTO. what i have is

MS4
prc .675 springs and retainers
TSP 7.425 pushrods
FAST 102/102
underdrive pulley

new for the goat
kooks 1" 7/8
off road x-pipe
magnaflow cat back
Volant CAI

My question is what would be the ideal heads to get me to 500 RWHP with my current parts?

You will need to upgrade the fuel system to handle what mods you already have planned, and the clutch will have to be upgraded as well, or if you are an A4 you will need a stall.

As for heads idk, if this is your daily driver the MS4 cam seems a bit big for the stock motor size, not a great DD cam but if it doesnt bother you then its alll good.
