With that huge chamber size these heads won't be an upgrade, you'll lose compression in a big way.

Check the accessory holes on the fronts/rears of the old heads to see if they're in the same location as your current heads. When I bought GMPP aluminum heads, I had to have the shop add a hole for the serpentine accessory brackets on each side.
