Re: heads
very very true.
Aluminum heads can be thousands of dollars new.
Not sure if a Corvette L98 heads work. They were aluminum heads I believe. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. But even so, good luck finding them cheap.
Better off getting vortec heads for the price (if you want to keep the TPI they make intakes specifically for L98 TPI with vortecs.

Re: heads
Aluminum vette heads. Also know as 113 heads.
They should work. A hole will need to be drilled in the passenger side head for the accessory bracket to attach.
If the heads are left untouched you definitely lose some pounds up front.
I have a set that have been heavily modified.
Try the for sale forum here and eBay to score a set.
