Default Lookin at heads and my setup

So i been lookin at PRC stg2.5 5.3 heads.
My setup...212/218 lowlift cam,long tubes,yanktt3000,K&N intake and tune

Would it be worth the money to buy these heads even thou my cam has such low lift?
Would it be worth it or will the performance gain be cut short?

Seen them do great on other setups with more cam,nobody has them on a mild application such as mine

on texas speed and performance's website you can spec out a custom cam. since you like the power band of the 212/218, maybe get one on cut on xe lobes for a .558/.563 lift to take advantage of the better flowing heads, but keep the 114 lsa 112 centerline. i wouldnt think your powerband would change much if at all.
