Default DOHC heads for 351W?

Anyone know a producer of DOHC heads for a 351W (4,5, or 6 valves per cylinder).

Also, will an old dual plane 4-barrel manifold from edelbrock, holley, or the other 4bbl intake manufacturers plumbed up for SFI flow better (and will the price be cheaper) than the classic upper and lower manifold-style of the 5.0s?

Will a billet steel bottom end and a solid ignition retard kit make my motor able to withstand a healthy shot of nitrous (while under 20-25 psi of boost, or is that too dangerous? What psi should I run?) I won't be using it everyday, just when the random ricer or z06 wants to tangle...

I dont recall anyone making DOHC heads for 351s because they still use pushrods and lower a cam...
