Calling all opionated engine builders

Ok guys hear is what i got; so i have a 350 that is bored .30 over (so 355) and its got a oil leak in the timing cover so its needing to be pulled to get at it. So i figure while im there i will do a few things. Hear is my dilemma, its got dished pistons that i know need to go so I'm thinking of going with one of these flat top or a domed pistons.

Also I have some cast iron head choices, i have a set of 202 160 valve 882's or a set of 195 150 487x's.

Im not 100% positive but i think i have a stock lower rotating assembly not including the dished pistons. I plan on using a steel shim head gasket that is 0.015 thick.

This truck is my daily driver but its more of a future hot rod so im not worried about gas millage to much but i do need "some" street driveability. but i do likey the HP and would love to suck a few more ponies out of the engine. down the road (long way down) it will get a set of vortech heads but that is a long way off.

So you pro builders out there if i could get your help in deciding what is the best combo for me it would be great! The guys on hear have never steered me wrong so I'm up for any help i can get. Thanks all
