Angus Young Signature Pickup question

Hey I'm thinking about replacing the pickups in my SG Standard which has the C57 and C57+ right now.
I love that Angus AC/DC SG sound, and the Classic 57+ in the bridge just doesn't sound ballsy enough.

I have the original 498t but I was wondering if the AY sig pickup really sounded much different than the 498t. To me the 498t isn't really that bad, a tad bright but sounds pretty good. All I need the bridge pickup for is rockin out so I don't want a classic vintage PAF sound.

I'm fine with the 498t in there but I was wondering if it was worth the upgrade to get the AY sig pickup if I wanted a more AC/DC lead sound.

Also I was thinking about dropping the C57+ from the bridge into the neck position (can you do that? are the c57 neck and c57 bridge interchangable like that?)
