Your best bet would have been to ditch the stock heads and go with a decent set of aftermarket heads. It will cost you about the same as rebuiulding your current ones. As for the cam on a stock motor you can be in the 220 @ .050 range and still have a daily driver with good manners. The stock converter will be OK with this.

A holley 750 will really hamper the street manners of a 350 with an auto behind it and no stall......it's not really needed until a 350 is built fairly radical.
