Default Head and intake decision

I have an ls2 (6 speed) with a few goodies like a ms4 cam, long tube headers, cold air and corsa exhaust. I get 467 to the wheels and yes its tuned. If I decide to replace the heads, throttle body, intake manifold and injectors, which setup should I go? I've heard different options but still want the car to run with no issues. I don't mind more power but it is a weekend driver. Thanks for all of your help.

I would contact Tony Mamo @ MMS and talk about your goals.
Sportsment 223 Heads (budget), MMS 220 fully CNC, MMS 235 (go big or go home, with room to
go stroker), Ported Fast or MSD (depending on RPM range), Ported stock 90 MM LS2 TB
(enough for 600 RWHP and much easier to tune, remember to get VMax TB spacer to adapt
to 102 opening on Manifold), 36-42 lb injectors.

Or or someone will say shortly Stock LS3 Top End, but you will need to change your cam,
land the throttle response will not be as crisp or fun to drive.
Good Luck
