What heads/cam?

I'm going to buy a recon short block 350 tbi for a 1993 caprice to swap into my 1990 formula 305 tbi. What heads and cam do you think would work? I'm not going to race the car, but i would like a little show time when needed..

one question that we need to have answered is....what do you want out of the car. i see you said you don't plan to race it, but will there be possible occasional track times?

Of the 2 big questions that need to be fronted, one has already been asked. The other is: What is the budget?

No track times.. as for budget, well i bought the car for $700 knowing that it had a cracked block. I have been putting my time and money on the suspension for now. I will purchase the new engine when i get my income tax in February.. I'm not looking to spend a lot of money.. I guess about $1000 for heads and a cam.
