head/cam question for a stock shortblock motor
 

i have a 308, basically a stock rebuilt type of deal.
i was wondering what would be the best head/cam combo to run with it? i have a comp cam right now, .512/.512 lift (the higher duration one). but i might be selling it to my friend.

im looking at 2 heads in particular, TFS twisted wedge and the Jegs casting 2.02's ( 2.02/1.60, 58cc, 170cc intake, clears stock pistons with up to .550 lift cam). obviously im looking at both for piston to valve clearance, i like the idea of the jegs heads being 58cc opposed to the trickflows that are 61cc. as far as cams, will what i have work out good with this setup? im thinking about selling the comp and just going to FTI for a custom grind. my goal with the car is somewhere in the 11's on HP.
car is basically full suspension, GMS rear controll arms, 50/50's, 90/10's with 4cyl springs up front stock in rear, PA k-member & A-Arms, 8.8 with 4.10 and a spool, backed by a t-5 on a 26'' slick.

with the given info what would work out best for me?
all opinions welcomed.

If you want 11's on motor you wont be able to take any short cuts. Nice ported aluminum heads. AFR 185's, Canfields, Trick flow's etc......You will need a big runner intake like the trick flow or systemax or edelbrock and a custom cam as well as 1 3/4 long tube headers and good exhaust.

I think I could hit 11's with an aggressive custom cam, a bigger intake and 4.30 gears.

thing is, piston to valve clearence, thats why i was looking at the twisted wedge or jegs heads. though its a 308, its just a stock rebuilt basically, stock style flat top pistons etc. so doenst make gobbs of compression so would i even need a head like a 185?
oh and btw, its carburated. i'll either be running a weiand stealth or a performer rpm, still havent decided. with a 650 demon.

I'd get the twisted wedge heads and put a vic. jr intake on it. Then when you get the dough, get the trick flows ported.

screw it, ill just pop new pistons in it and get different heads.
they dont make those trickflow pistons for .040 over as far as i know.
now time to decide which ones.
