GT40P heads from a 5.0L to 5.8L
What all is required to swap the GT40P heads from a 5.0L to a 5.8L? I know the head bolt holes need to be drilled out but what else? Heard a rumor that certain headers won't work due to spark plug placements? Any information on this will be appreicated.

Yeah different headers and pushrods should be all!! actually stock pushrods should be fine! everything else should fall into place!
But i`d only use them if that is all i had, yeah better than stock but not enough for the swap! depending on the 351 heads you might loose some power or vise versa!

It`s kinda funny you mention this cause i`m about to do the same thing in my 68 just to get it running until i can upgrade the heads!
I`m gonna have an angle job done and mill abit off some, home porting and lettem work until i can do something else!
