Default heads & cam suggestions

What's up everyone. I have an Edelbrock upper/lower intake, 70mm t body 24 lb injectors, and 255lb fuel pump sitting at home. My 93 GT is stock right now and I was about to install all of these parts, but I decided to do it right and get a good pair of heads and a good cam. What heads and cam would you guys suggest? I have to keep it emissions legal still since it isnt 20 years old yet, so I just wanted a simple combo for now. I plan on doing forced induction later on down the road.Thanks

That depends on how much your willing to spend and what you expect from your engine.

I had a Performer 5.0 Intake on my daily driver.

I also went with AFR 165 cylinder heads and an FTI custom camshaft. (www.flowtechinduction.com).

I loved it.

I would try a set of edelbrock heads to go with your intake setup, but thats just my opinion
