LT1-LT4 Kit?

Is it worth it? I have heard no...because ported LT1 heads flow better than stock LT4 heads, but...what if the Lt4 Heads were ported? would they make more power? Im a pretty sure they will, but all in all, is it worth it or no?
Thanks!

The kit is not worth it. And you can get real good flow out of stock ported ones. And If you get a set of LT4 heads you will also have to get the intake. This guy among others dose real good work www.eportworks.com

i know of a place that will do fantastic work... but how much power do you think a fully ported set of lt1 heads will make on a stock lt1? as opposed to a fully ported set of lt4 heads and intake... thanks!
