OK I would like to know what else I would need with this kit to rebuild my engine. And also can someone please explain to me the reason why I cannot use twisted wedge or anything like that. Thanks guys, sorry for stupid Q. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ford-...57568114QQrdZ1

RE: 347 rebuild

you can use twisted wedge heads..if you want to bend valves and ding up pistons.

Ok well I got the GT-40p's and I plan on porting them. Will I have a problem with em? Also for a complete rebuild will that satisfy everything or will I need to get some extra parts?

Nah, with those valve reliefs and not planning on running greater than .600" lift (are you?) you should be fine, but always check PTV clearance!

RE: 347 rebuild

And how exaclty would I check that? I dont know much about the internal mathematics. So that kit has everything I need for the rebuild? Nothing else needed?
