Stroker kit and cam change will get you where you want to be. The heads will do well, no need to have them ported. Just get the right camshaft for those heads now and you can always stroke later. The extra cubic inches will give you that much more horsepower.

350 x 1.3 = 455
383 x 1.3 = 498

43hp gain in stroking. 1.3 is a variable number. It was just used to show you a difference in numbers. If you're @ 1.5hp per cubic inch, you'd see a gain of 50hp gain.

You'll see the most of your gains in the camshaft swap.
