The heads will work fine, if you are gonna make it a street car go with a Weiand Stealth and drop to a 3.55 rear gear as far as the camshaft goes try an OL School Motorsport X. That will get you bottom 12's on motor and possibly high 10's on a 150 shot properly tuned.

its all what you want to spend I personally see no reason to go custom for the simple combo you have planned. If you plan on running juice get a set of 1011-2 head gaskets and studs. As far as the heads are concerned with the 2.02 intake on the 185 you will have to keep lift kind of low for now and keep the tune safe on the sauce or those factory hypers are toast. I would just try a Motorsport F cam, they are cheap and work well with NOS and have about the lift your pistons will be able to handle. Just my 2 cents take it for what its worth!!!!!!!!!!!
