My car is stupid light for an 86, but I have a feeling if my avg pwr is only around 220-225 I'm going to be disappointed and looking for other ways to take points that aren't worth it for classing. I also want to finish the front-half of my cage at some point so I'd like to future proof power numbers for a little added weight to the car and maybe give myself the option to run non-DOT tires and up-class.

I found a pretty good deal on a machined RBC head with valvetrain upgrades... Leaning towards just going that route at this point. Any reasons I should avoid it? I was trying to do this swap cheap-ish but now here I am considering a built head lol but the price on the one I found seems worth the gamble.

If the deal is good it can add 5-10 hp depending on who you ask. If you already have upgraded valves jump to the DC 2.2 and put them to work.
