355 Buildup?

I plan on do a 355 buildup on my IROC, and was wondering what would be the best aluminum heads to use?

It depends on the flow you want. Ported, aluminum heads work good. If you want a little more, get the Twisted Wedge set. They will easily flow up to 400 horsepower. AFR makes three different sizes, but for more money. I have the AFR 195, but they're a liitle too big for my mods. I would've went with the Twisted Wedge ones if I knew then what I know now.

Aren't the Twisted Wedge ones the ones they used on Magnum TPI in GMHTP? Their power figures were only like 230 rwhp. I want to run 12s. I am goin to bore my engine .030 over with flat top pistons, comp cam (around 230 Duration), roller rockers,I would like to put a superram on it but that might flow to much.
