Default 5.0 ho

Found a 5.0 HO on FB for a decent price. I’m in the process of pulling the 5.0 in my 95 out for a rebuild. I was going to rebuild it and add GT40 heads, but could I take the 5.0 HO and slap the GT40 heads and my stock intake on it? Any benefits to this? I know the HO’s have forged pistons, so there’s that.

The H.O. motor will use a steel roller cam, so if you get it, make sure you use the right distributor, and don't forget that it will use a different firing order as well.
