Default GT40 SWITCH OVER

I'M FINALLY GOING TO INTALL MY GT40P . THEY HAVE SPRINGS AND VALVES. BUIT NO ROCKERS OR PUSHRODS. . WELL BASICALLY BARE MINUS VALVES AND SPRINGS. WHAT WOULD I NEED TO SWITCH THEM WITH MY E7'S. AND CAN I USE ANYTHING OFF THE E7'S ON THE GT40P'S. IM SICK OF MY SLOW 5.0- AUTO. WOULD THESE HEADS AND TF STAGE 1 CAM AND 4:10 MAKE A NOTICABLE DIFFERENCE.

I would replace as much as you can afford while you're in there. You don't want something to crap out in a few weeks when you could have just replaced it to begin with.

Those 3 things will make a ginormous difference, you won't be able to stay out of the gas.
