recommend heads?

hello.
Can someone recommend some heads for this engine?

Cam: 218 224 .462 .477 112
Displacement: 355
Rear gear: 3.36
Auto tranny stock stall.
Headers and true dual exhaust.
Approx 9.5 - 1 compression
Dual plane intake.
Qjet carb - no computer

I'm looking for a head available with straight plugs, various combustion chamber volumes (to calculate compression), under $1000, and under 200cc intake volume.
I don't want to use vortecs.
I was considering the dart iron eagle 180cc, but they seem a little soft on intake flow. Any thoughts on these heads? Any recommendations?
Thanks.

Re: recommend heads?

There arent very many good heads under $1000. Trick Flows and AFR Eliminators are the two best for the money. I think Patriot Heads and Racing Head Service had some, so search for their websites.
