OK.
Let's say I'd like a head/cam combo that will put down ~420 RWHP, idle like stock, eat not much more gas on the highway than stock, and not spend more than $2500. Can that be done?

I doubt it. You might be able to get the parts for that much and do the work yourself...but even that is pushing it.

OK. I plan on doing the work myself. Does anyone have a combo that somewhat fits my description?

I'd say to get that much HP at the wheels you're gonna need a wild cam and that usually doesnt idle like stock.

You are looking at:
heads: 2000-2500
long tubes:1000-1200
cam/pushrods: 600
Misc bolt ons: 1000

And it is not going to idle like stock, not even close.
