Cool Pros and Cons intake carb replacement upgrade.

I've been thinking about projects that have a great cost/results ratio since we are starting to save back money for our up coming family addition in October. The one I've really been looking at is replacing my original intake/2 barrel carb setup to an edelbrock performer with a 1405(i think that was the number) 4 barrel carb. what are everyone's thoughts? Is it worth it or would it just be a waste of my time. The current carb needs a tune up and I was looking to dress my motor up without having to pull it. Although I would still like to go through a 400/454/350 to replace the original motor that is in it with 94k on it. I would like to pull the motor eventually so that I can say i have the original motor in great condition if/when I would go to sell to buy a swb.
