I have GT40P heads on my car and am having problems with the headers burning the plug wires. If you get the heads do some research before you buy headers.

Thats not a difficult fix. Use cut to fit spark plug wires with 90* boots. Itll also keep your from having those goofy length wires you get when you buy replacement wires. One or two is always too short, and one or two are always too long.

You have to get equal length headers when you use the GT-40p's

... and the regular GT40s were before that. So look for the later years.
