is this build worth it??

i think i got a idea on something diffrent...

a 1990 tbi 350 54k on motor runs awsome! 60psi oil all the time. i am not going to use the tbi i am thinkin strippin the swirls off and runnin my set of 461 heads. there ported and polished and have manley 2.02 valves and arp screw in studs and manley guide plates. there pretty well built. i was going to run them on my 383 when ever i get around to finishing it. but am now going to buy after market heads for that.

i want to do this because i can run a bigger cam, and maybe my turbo set up. the 461 heads are like a 62cc chamber so its a little better then the swirls. and i can run my team g intake mani. so u think it will peform better then just leaving it alone and running the swirls with a cam and my team g intake.
