It would take quite a bit more than just swapping the heads , there area bunch of other things on that engine that are different as well.
Oil pumpis diferent, Extra counter balance belt and idlers ,etc.
Take a good look at: http://www.brickboard.com/FAQ/700-900/B234Ftimingbelts.htm

To get a rough idea of the differences.
Not to mention the fact that it's an interference head.
There's not enough difference in the power to justify all of that work.
