Default 94GT Alum Heads and Cam..WHAT TO BUY


I am looking to build my 94GT, i have a procharger with 15lb pulley, 331 stroker kit, ford racing headers,and a AODE tranny that is fully built with ALTO "red eagle" parts and a stage 3 shift kit. I am looking for a set of heads and a cam for my car. It is supercharged and i am trying to keep it streetable and run at the track a lot, looking for 550hp at crank keeping all the emissions stuff. What heads and cam can i use that will make good power and still bolt up like normal. I am leaning toward AFR 185s or Twisted wedge heads. I like the X-303 cam but i dont know how the computer will react to that. I plan on having the car tuned or tuning it myself, i have a WB 02 but dont know what to buy to tune the car (TRANNY, ENGINE) or what i can put in the car for perf. parts and still use the stock ECU with some sort of chip.
Any info is good info.
Thanks
Tom
