Default Question on GT40 Heads.

Do the GT40 Heads also come in the V6 Explorers/Mountaneers or only in the V8's?

And is there a difference between GT40 and GT40P, or is it the same thing?

Well seeing as the GT-40 head was made for V-8's, it probably wouldn't fit on a V6 that well.

There is a difference between the 40's and the 40p's, The chamber is cast slightly different to promote swirling of the air so that they flow slightly better while using smaller valves. HP-wise they are pretty much the same but the 40p's require a special header to fit due to the spark plug placement.
