Default Head and cam selection.

Friends, I need some expertise.
My next step with my 02 is going to be a head and cam change. I will be running a vararam, LG longtubes with no cats, and ghl bullets. I'm looking to keep it behaved enough to be a daily driver, but I love the sound. Any and all input would help. Thanks in advance!

I would search the forum and google some ideas; Thats what I did. I only posted a question after I narrowed my choices to two just for some input from members who have these items. There are tons and tons of cam and head topics on the forum.

I am very happy with my 243 heads, Comp Cam 224/224-.050-.567/.567 114lsa, LS6 intake and lower valley cover.

I replaced alot of things when i did the upgrades and youll want to do the same.

Drive everyday I can.
