Why Do You Start Every Word With A Capital Letter??

As for the gasflowed head, alone u wont get much more than a few brake, but if you combine it with a 4 branch and full system and then add twin 40s/TBs or sum other way of increasing whats going in to the engine, then u should see sizeable increases.
Ita all about flowing, its all well and good getting the fuel/air/emmisions in and out of the head, but you also need to ensure thy get to the head and away from the head equally as well.

every little helps but if you want serious power you would be better to do something with the valves

make sure manifolds are matched properly to your head for the best airflow otherwise you would be wasting part of it if not all of it anyway

are u running standard cam?

is the exhaust only thing changed from standard and obviously head now
