your the perfect test subject for the new heads i found.

check on ebay, 185cc patriots brand new ready to bolt on for less than 900 usd. flow numbers look great, and they make 4.6 later model heads and people seem to like those.......

get em, and report back with results!

Those Ford heads won't make as much power as AFR's etc. They're designed for stocktype sportsman racing where you have to run an iron head. You could try those Patriot heads.....it'll at least get my77stang to stop prodding everyone who asks about heads about them

well the patriot heads are great 4.6 heads for the money. But i don't know about the ford windsor heads. I was told by a builder that they are good heads for the amount of money spent. I will look intothem, maybe i will buy them later (3 months) if i cant find a nice used set. And 1000 CAD is about 900 USD. those afr heads had everything needed to run even the valve cover.

Those heads are off the list, they will cost me to much.

Intresting, they do not 'flat-out' like some do. Notice how the more lift, the more the flow is........
