Eddy heads. Can I/Should i...?

I talked to a guy at KCIR a few years ago who had blown up the race engine in his 70 Duster. He took the Eddy's and put them on a 88 truck 318 shortblock, with the accessories from the race engine, and put that back into the car so he could finish the season. It was running 12.30's that way!
Look at it this way, you won't have to buy them later, when they get more expensive! If ya gotta spend money somewhere, put it in the cylinder heads....
Opposing viewpoints cheerfully accepted!
