RE: hey adder
you can get them on ebay for a little bit cheaper.. but if your looking at $400 for a set then yes, its a good deal.
96-97.5 explorer 5.0 heads are GT-40 heads but they are a low compression model. you will need to get them decked atleast .020 to get the same 9:1 compression that your car has stock!
