Default GT40p heads- good price? Fit my car?

'98 Explorer GT-40P heads w/
hardened seats
new guides
smoothed ports
TFS Spring kit
stock valves
$325

If you think this is a good price, what do you think I should look for when checking them out? Will they fit my Cobra intake manifold/BBK shorties?

Your shorties won't fit, you need special headers to clear the plugs. That is a good price.

'92 GT btw, forgot to mention that. Are these headers going to cost a lot?

MAC makes a set that will fit. http://www.macperformance.com/store/...Product_ID=854


YOu could try fitting your BBKs but your plugs are going to get torched, and will be a huge pain in the *** to get to.

Thanks for the link. Do you think it will be worth it if I have to spend a total of $625 to get these heads to work?

I'd say it'd be a little much...You could try finding a set of GT-40's though, so you can keep your headers. That is a good price for a pair of P's but with the added cost of the headers, it kinda makes up for that.
