fly is fine, just looking for a rough guess.

also will have like double roller chain and such.. but thats all the stuff that would add power.

dont waste your time with stock heads, look around for a used set maybe from a speedshop or a local mustang drag racer

you don't really gain much by proting heads... you'd gain a lot more by buying aftermarket heads and intake manifold
