Default Engine for 53 plate wrx

Hi just wondered if anyone could show some light on where or what engine i could install in a 53 plate wrx. I have a wrx 53 plate bottom end but the heads that was on the origional engine are scrap as 2 of the valves are damaged. Cheers

V5/6 sti heads fit and you would be able to get more power from them as have bigger valves
