Head swap???

Just brainstorming before i get a new engine or anything else that might be stupid. is there a newer or different size head i can put on my 1989 2.9l to get more power. I'd like to keep the 2.9 platform, so I'm brainstorming on what i could do for more power. I know a good cam would work but I'm also wondering what type of heads i could put on it to get more Horsepower or better fuel economy. either way will make me happy i have shitty gas mileage as it is so mor horsepower doesn't bother me and better economy is also nice.Give me your thoughts please and thank you.
