for efi, and it would give you the 350 hp that you wanted, and everything fits and pulls good all the way to rev limiter. about the 2.02 valve hitting the pistons, these heads are twisted wedge for the purpose of not hitting the pistons. not sure of 86 down but tfs will tell you, the afr, holly, edelbrock, etc.,that mr roundman mentioned are excellent also + mr roundman has forgot more about mustangs than i will ever learn, so keep the advice coming mr roundman i surely need it, but if you want your 350 hp you can get it with the tfs kit. just take you time & decide what is best for you. i just finished putting this tfs kit in my 93 gt 5 spd and i like it. another thing i like about it is everything works good together and it fits,& comes with instructions that even i got it right the first time good luck. hope i did not take up too much space.

I've got a set of (NIB) Edelbrock RPM performer heads, E-303 cam, and ARP studs i'll sell ya for $1200.00.

NIB = New In Box.

I even have some used roller lifters (15K on them) and Comp cams push rods if you want to make it a roller setup.

don't you have to have deeper valve notches in the pistons to run those 2.02" valves though??
Hey Roundie, Would you have to do that for the Edlebrock Performer RPM heads?

This may seem dumb but what are studs??? I dont know what that means. and when you say roller lifters what do you mean by that. because i dont have a roller motor. and the lifters what size are they?

Studs are just another form of bolting down your heads. They look like threaded rod that you screw into the block, then you place your gasket over them and then the head.

Then you run nuts down the studs and torque to factory specs. Using studs also make it easier to put the new heads on.

Roller lifters are for a roller cam, if you were to put a roller cam in your car you'd have to switch to roller rockers, as for size they are the stock 5.0 roller lifters.
