What aluminum heads, pistons and cam to buy??

I'm gonna start building a 302 I have a block and steel crank. Its gonna be carbureted, I'm gonna spray nitrous about a 150-200 shot. I want to use a hydraulic roller lifter cam. I want to get a short block assembled soon. I also want to run 9:1 compression. I need to know what heads, pistons and cam you would suggest running. I would like to get 450hp at the crank on nitrous. I would prefer to use heads that come assembled.

What do you think?

You could get that on stock parts with a 200 shot. Ported stock heads & intake + 200 shot would probably be pretty damn close to 450HP. You'll likely break something, but you don't need nearly that much nitrous to hit that number.

I know I prolly could but i want it to be reliable.

I'm a big fan of a custom cam. Ed C done a very nice job with myn. As for heads, AFR gets my vote as well. Pistons, I've run probe forged flattops for around 5-8k miles now, no issues at all. I also run a 100 shot currently, I'm going to try the 150 out now since I have BFG's mounted now. I'm just worried about the ticking timebomb called a t5, hopefully I can enough cash to get the parts to fix some synchros and hope she holds together.
