Default 302/351 cylinder head choices

Ok so I've read around on all the forums for different brand reviews etc etc, now my question that I can't seem to have answered is the size of the cylinder head. I have a '95 GT, cai and header back exhaust. Are 185cc cylinder heads too big for a streetable car? I have a buddy with a built 306 that has 205's, he makes 320 rwhp, but he says those heads are too big

So for a mild built H/C/I 302 with stock internals, are 185 heads a good streetable head? Given the same streetable conditions, what about putting them on a 351? I want to try and put 350 hp to the ground.
