Heads, Cam & Intake combo - opinions??

I am planning my new combo.

Current car stats. 3300 lbs w/T700R4, about to put in 3.45gears, stock converter or maybe upgrade to 3000k stall.

The cam i have is the Crane2032 compucam.

I have made the decision to run a HSR with adj regulator (maybe standalone Aeromotive reg).

The heads are what i need help on. I like the look of the new aluminium Patriot 195's (assembled), plus they're a good price. Is this runner volume in the ball park for a streetable 6000-6500rpm redline with only 355ci and HSR? Keep the Crane cam?

Also, what can i expect for peak HP/TQ numbers? Hoping for plenty of midrange-and-up torque so i can hopefully grab 12's......??

I would think you'd want more cam with heads like that.
