What are good aluminum heads for a 305??

What is a good set of aluminum heads for a 305? I'll be getting a cam soon and was thinking about also getting heads. I was thinking of corvette heads. Are they any good and how much do they cost? I'm wanting to keep my tpi set up also.

Thanks for the help.

You want good?

I suggest the AFR180 series with 1.94 / 1.60 valves, cut to 58cc combustion chambers.

They are about $1200.
