Turbo heads 900

OK guys, is there any difference in parts (besides the obvious cam) between a B230FT head and a N/A head? Like sodium filled valves or harder seats or stronger valve springs?
I've got a bad valve in #1 cyl. and, barring any major parts differences, for less than what it would cost me to R&R & rebuild the existing head, I can get a good N/A head from the local salvage yard, swap cams, hang the intake & turbo and I'm back in business.
What do you think?
