Yes. Vortec will has much better flowing heads, some of the best stock Chevy heads and a different cam. Your existing TBI is tuned to match a very different engine.
You have to remember that the computers are tuned very specifically to the needs of the motor that is in the car. Change anything that changes air flow or fuel flow and it changes the requirements of timing and fuel. Going to Vortec heads is not a small adjustment, it is major improvement.
