l98 completely rebuilding

im just wanting to know what the best heads are that i can get for my L98.. i have TPIS zz409 cam and thats it.. im in the process of getting an intake and carb right now but i want to get the heads first.. any idea's opinions suggestions would be great.

EDIT: AFR 195cc aluminum heads ( http://www.summitracing.com/parts/AFR-1040/ )
Edelbrock performer intake 7101 ( http://www.summitracing.com/parts/EDL-7101/ )
Edelbrock 750cfm carb 9913 ( http://www.summitracing.com/parts/EDL-9913/ )

hows that look for my winter shopping list?
