Hemi engine swap..is it worth it

I'm pretty excited to do a hemi swap just waiting to see if my core is good. If so I'm going to basically do a stock rebuild with a healthy cam , intake and carb . Just hope it's worth it that's my worry. Since I'm not doing fuel injection it seems a lot of people are like why bother. It's still a modern engine even with a carb and well built. Also the cool factor of saying I have a hemi in my Dart. I have owned 3 6.4 hemi cars and they are a blast in a 4200 plus pound car. I figure this 5.7 should be close in power with my build and in a car that weighs 1 k less..be pretty fast car
