| Which heads
I have a 93 5.0 HO I was wondering if a pair of 351 heads will fit on my block I heard they will but I don't want to buy them and they not fit and my 5.0 is a roller motor isn't it?

You won't gain anything from then over the e7 heads already in your car.

Gt40's
---------- Post added at 10:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:31 AM ----------
The gt40p's will also work of you have the right headers... What's your budget? But I'm sure the gt40's will be the best bang for the least amount spent... But If you can save and get some trick flows or edelbrocks it will be worth the wait

Ok what do you have to change to run the p's? Does it just have non Emissions? it's been forever since I've ran them but I know it's like an extra 40hp over e7's

Because the p heads better mixture burn. They didn't need the pollution port on the back.some people drill them in. Others delete smog. I am not sure if this true on all of them

just got with the frpp shorty p headers and call it a day an not spend countless hours trying to make something fit that wasnt designed to

| I am well aware of both the frpp and Mac p specific headers. Some of us are running non specific headers on our p heads with no problem. I'm using bbk headers on mine and only required one 90* plug. Doesn't take much. | |

Yes p heads are from explorers.. Get them if they are cheap and send them to be vatted and milled if needed and cleaned up should only cost about $120
---------- Post added at 07:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:42 AM ----------
If you can afford it get an angle job. If they can flow test take your intake in let them match the ports and polish them up.. That will be good power prob 50+ if you add the right combo

And also match the ports to the intakes and have it polished. With a lil valve work.. Definitely 50hp gain with right cam combo
