Default RE: head work

they are a bitch to do in a SOHC (as I in i tried and failed) and honestly with a 4.6, the heads should be off the car. I know the cobra DOHC heads are even more tough to get at and work around with them in the car... so I'd look into upgrading the cams and having the heads rebuild, cuz they all are probably going to have to come out
