Default Thinking of going with Dart or AFR heads

Right now I have Ported and Polished Heads that I bought from Modern Cylinder Head.(228cc Intake/ 86cc Exhaust, 62cc Combustion Chambers Casting #862) and a Cartek Stage 2x cam[224/228, 113 LOSA, .590 lift] hardened chromoly pushrods, pulley, PPC long tube headers, high flow cats, SLP Loudmouth exhaust, LS6 Intake Manifold, Ported Throttle Body, 4.10 gears, Spec clutch.

Dynoed at Max HP 405.5 and Max Torque at 376.5

282.2 cfm at .500 lift exhaust is at 208.4
312.9 at .650

I been reading about the Dart heads and AFR's and I'm thinking I would like better torque and horsepower and was wondering if those heads would get me closer to 475 hp and 400lbs of torque.

IMO the darts can't be beat for the price. It wouldn't surprise me if AFR reduces their price after some more Dart dyno results are posted.
