TBI vs. Carb?

Just wondering everyones thoughts on this subject. My 86 K30 is 454 carb powered but I have a TBI 454 also sitting in my garage. I think I have all the sensors, throttle body, computer but not the harness. The engine I am running now has an aluminum intake and holley carb now with headers. Not sure how much work it would be and what all I would need to convert to TBI. If it would even be worth it.

I like fuel injection as a whole but am thinking probably won't get the power that the carburetor will deliver. Any thoughts about any of this?
