302 heads-Is it worth putting them on a stock 318

I think 302 are a waste, if you look at the stock hp number between non 302 headed 318's and ones with there no power difference. In general I think 318 heads are a waste unless your gonna port them but why not do a set of magnums instead. Or

Why don't you do things that will work with your future 5.9/360 swap like rear end and gears, maybe 904 with deeper first gear, exhaust and headers, ignition, electric fan and better rad, EQ heads, and air gap intake etc...
