I have a set of 351w heads(D8OE) and i currently have on my car are the E7TE heads. Are the 351W heads a better head when ported over the stock heads ported? I am on a budget so aftermarket heads are out of the question. I'll be using a 306 short block(stock style pistons,forged) with a b-cam, ported cobra intake w/1" spacer, full exhaust, cai,75mm maf,65mm tb. , 155 lph pump and a 5 speed. Thanks!
351w heads D8OE vs. stock 5.0 heads?

E7TE that came on 87 or later 5.0 stangs are your best bet. The D8OE combustion chamber volume is larger than the E7 heads and will drop your compression ratio. i ported my e7s and i have a set of D8OE heads sitting in the garage...

W heads were only decent until 73...
Early 76 if you don't mind all the emissions plumbing.
Those 78s (D8) are good for scrap iron.
