Default Heads for heavy car?

Hey guys, I came acrossed another built top end at a swapmeet at a bargain price.
It's in a wrecked GT so I have to tow it and pull it but at $600 I couldn't pass it up. It has Dart brand heads that I think are 190cc.
Are these too large to put on a heavy car like a Lincoln mark vii? 190cc seems sorta large and the thing is doggy from a start already even with 3.73 in back.
Any recomendations on heads for a heavy car would be appreciated, as would comments on these heads.


Thanks.

be very careful, and figure out WHAT dart heads they are!!!

when i was looking around at heads, i notice MOST dart heads are ONLY for dart blocks, as it has a different bolt pattern (im pretty sure thats it)

if its a dart block also, id yank the hole engine, rebuild, and have one bad *** engine

GOOD LUCK
