This question has about 100 different answers.

Ideal heads and cams depends on your intentions with the bike...how you ride....what kind of gas you're willing to run....what kind of dependability you expect.

Caution that many of the dyno charts that you see are not entirely accurate. Many are uncorrected or fudged by the dyno operator and then others neglect to tell you that the combo runs 12 to 1 compression and race gas.

You'd have to give more information before anyone can give you an intelligent answer.

I left it up to Nick Trask @ Custom Performance in Phoeniz, Az.
He has done a ton of all combos and he dyno's as well.
You tell him what you would like to accomplish and he will
certainly get it there. And the best part is he does it right
the 1st time.
He is really into turbos but he can definately make some good
affordable horsepower w/fuel injection also.
