Default RE: heads questions

not a huge diff, box stock the p's have smaller exhaust valves but both have 1.85 intakes

the p's have a weird plug angle that probably will require "p" specific headers

personally i like the cobra/lightning heads better.

to visually id them..... 40's have 3 hash marks on the ends, "p"'s have 4 and for the most part real 40's will have a casting number starting w/ f3ze

either should be ported a bit and comp valve job to really make good w/ them

read this link for good basic info on heads
