Need help making power......

I am looking for a good head, intake and cam combo to make more power. I don't want to go aluminum, just maybe some cheap cast GM heads. I drive my car everyday and it is my only mode of transportation, but I want my ride to be a quick one. I am not worried about emmisions or gas guzzling, just reliable and fast. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

What exhaust?

Small block power is in the heads. You have basically the worst 350 heads there are on there. Get a pair of L98 heads and a Comp XE268H cam. You definitely need to make sure that you have a good exhaust system if you haven't already, from the heads to the street.

My cast iron heads that have been ported and polished are for sale if you're interested. Those heads with a 270HR-10 cam on my 350 proppelled my car to mid to low 13s.
