Default Heads for 427ci LS3..?

Im having a hard time trying to figure out what heads to go with.What in your opinion would be the best bet for producing 500+whp,im guessing my TFS 215's may hold me back.Car will see the track maybe a few times a year,just looking for a solid street car.Would a set of ported L92's be my best bet?

L92's on a 427 is an easy 500+ RWHP car. There's many 416's running around with L92 heqads and L76 intakes that are making around 530 RWHP, with nice street cams.

No thats another issue,i just know im gonna have to sell my TFS heads and go bigger with somthing like the ported L92's or maybe even some TFS 235's.Depending on what i get for my 215's i might swing for a pair of 235's because im really happy with the trickflows.

With the cam i want somthing that not to agressive yet not to small,and have really not even though about it yet.Car is gonna stay all motor so it needs to have some kick..Now that im going with bigger cubes im kinda regreting not getting a t400 but the overdrive will be nice.I just hope the FLT stays together when i add more cubes.
