Fast old school 87 9KT 2.1 Head or ported 2.0 L

Hello.
I have a 87 9000T 120K mile 175 LBS all cylinders.
Hello
Any old school real world advice ? Not to be rude but please dont answer unless you have a good idea, thanks.
My head gasket is leaking and im thinking about getting a Swedish Dynamics
2.0L Red Head, or buying a 2.1L non turbo head with intake runners and throttle body getting
then getting some performance work done on
the 2.1L head. I hear the 2.1 is the hot set up ? Will I need to change exhaust valves cam ect ect
from the 2.0L to the 2.1 L? Any thing I should do while im that deep I.E timing tension ?
Has any one had positive or negative experience with ether ?
Any caveats ? Do I lose low end torque ?
Can you tell me real world gains and losses ? Im thinking the 2.1
may give me the best of both worlds torque and higher RPM,
via the different intake runners ?
Any advice before I tinker away ?
What do you think I will gain in HP ? Possibly additional 30 35 HP ?
The car currently has a APC kit, 30 lb injectors, K&N,
springs, 16",adjustable Konis ect, ect.
I heard this set up will eat a 2.3L Aero for lunch ? True/ False ?
Please send me a email and reply to davez@netapp.com if possible.
Thanks Dave.
