Default engine questions ? which heads etc..

alright, well the other deal fell through so i started poking around for some parts..

as of now i'm going with

mac longtubes
c&l 76mm mass air sensor/tube
75mm throttle body

and possibly an X303 cam

but thats where it stops, i was wondering which cam/head/intake combination would net me those wonderful numbers of at least 300rwhp N/A without raping my budget.

i saw some nice procomp heads on ebay for like 545.00 - but which valves, springs, and rockers should i use for em? or should i stick to trying to find some GT40P's or something?

i apologize for being a complete moron about any of this. - just need some good input on what you guys might think - also this car will be going on the spray of a 75 hp shot.

Thas a pretty big throttle body thats goin on there, almost maybe too big for street use, also are you think of bigger injectors, i read that bigger TB= bigger injectors, im not sure how true or if it matters, just my thoughts
