Shopping for heads. Who/What is SBF?

Just browsing around on ebay for a new set of heads when I came across these.

What should I look for in a h/c/i combo on a stock block? Obviously they need to be somewhat compatible as far as flow goes. I know it wouldnt make sense to get a set of high flowing heads with the stock intake manifold, or vice versa. Or to use the wrong cam, but what I'm trying to figure out is....will a higher flowing combo always make more power? Or should I be looking for something moderate, since I'm keeping the stock redline?

My ultimate goal is 300+whp off the spray. Suggest an i/c/h combo to get me there please. This will be on a 92 coupe. One more thing, will I need a tuning device such as a predator or sct? Or can I just slap in some injectors?

What's the budget, that's what matters most.

For compatibility and what's a pretty complete setup the TFS twisted wedge package is pretty good, saves alot of shopping.
With the right Throttle body, maf and injectors, that should get you very close to 300rwhp.

Better can definitely be done, but after that it starts to really hurt your wallet.
Thats' why i asked the budget.

Oh, and SBF stands for Small Block ford, bascially a 302 based engine. It's not a brand name, it's a description.

Don't use any cheap no name brand heads either, they have nothing but complaints.
Use TFS twisted wedges, afr 165's, edelbrock rpms, or gt40x's.
