You will lose power unless you flycut the heads down to a similar chamber size to stock (cc-wise). You are going to spend more money trying to make the 317s work, which most people now only use for low-compression boost setups.

You are better off saving your money for something else. Nitrous is the best bang-for-the-buck, as far as $ spent/hp go.
