you ought to try to score something differant, 351 heads, gt40s or something... but if thats what you have to work with then use em... their both similar and i THINK the e7 is better... its the stock head for 87-95 mustangs(not cobra)

id be tempted to go to town on them porting wise... they were 20 bucks whatcha gonna lose?

the E7TE's have smaller chambers than the E5AE's, the E5AE's are identical to the D8OE's.

E7's ftw (well, not really.... but in this case)
