I'm thinking of getting rid of pullups and chinups and replacing them with bicep curls and pullovers (both exercises on both upper days) - I know it might be best for me to stick with pullups. But, when I did bicep curls and pullovers in a past routine of mine, with not one single pullup, I was able to do a good amount of pullups even after I gained mass.

I'd just like to know your guys' take on this. Any suggestions, feel free to comment.

I'd say stick with the pullups and chinups. You can do negatives and weighted negatives when you can't do any more. You can always add the curls and pullovers as accessory lifts in the workouts that you don't do pullups or chins. Personally, I think that ditching pull-ups and chins for pullovers and curls won't do much in the long run. Pullups and chins allow you to use a heavier load and to work more muscles. I'm not big into isolation lifts, but you can always use them as accessories at the end of a workout.

I agree with Kevin. Superset curls and pullovers with your chins and pull-ups. This will help you build your strength. Eventually you won't need them anymore.
