6.0 build plan

I am saving the turbo build for when I return from Okinawa(next duty station) so I will just rebuild my LQ4(145K) when I get back from Afghanistan before I swap it into my 85 C10. I am going to hopefully just use the stock internals w/upgraded rod bolts. My question is in regards to heads/cam. I will leave it stock for now to get it running but I plan to swap some 243/799s(for the compression) and a cam at the same time later on, my question is should I save for some ported 243s or just go with stock 243s? It will be a daily driver with the occasional trip to the strip and either a TQ3 or Tsunami cam kit. I would like to reach 400-425 rwhp through a/th350 and 9" w/3.89 gears. I will also keep the stock truck intake unless I can find an LS6 before the swap happens.
