TTi step vs. 340 manifolds

Stock 1973 340 with Z and O head. LD340 intake. Power steering
Should I keep the manifolds or go through the hassle of fitting my TTi step headers around my torsion bars and p/s box. The car will have 3.23’s so it’s not like a max effort kinda car. There’s also the expense of new exhaust pipes. I would also have to buy another set of headers because these TTi’s were bought for a different project so that’s another $800 I would have to spend.

Is it worth it or with the combo it is would the manifolds be just as efficient?

This is a decision point between being economic with my parts and purchases and completing the combination that’s in the car. Is the intake/cam and gearing screaming for a set of headers to let it breathe or will 340 manifolds be enough manifold for the task at hand?
