which heads?

I've got a set of 461 double humps now, and they perform great. but would a set of 58cc 416 casting heads boost my performance or hurt it? i know they will raise the compression, which generally equals power, but can they support the airflow of a 30 over 350 with a .462/.469 cam? BTW carb is a 650 holley dp.
