What are GT-40 heads?
Click to expand...


They came on the 93 Cobras. It was Ford's first high performance head. It was replaced by the GT-40P which is on the 5.0 Explorers and Mountianeers.

With those exact mods, NO. But, you could get pretty damn close with the same amount of mods or similar. This is a video of a 321rwhp N/A 03 GT. Mods are:

-V&M Stg. 1 heads
-Comp Stg. II Cams
-Full exhaust (LT's, O/R H, Flows)
-CAI
-70mm TB & plenum

....thats it. With more aggressive heads and cams, better flowing catback (POS Flows ), and maybe even an X-pipe....you could see around 350-360rwhp

Those are STD numbers, not SAE. SAE would be around 311 rwhp, which is still very good for the mods.

I've reached 370 rwhp and am hoping for 400rwhp before I pull the engine for some new things we want to try for next year.

4.6 with almost all the bolt ons short of cam and head work will give you around 255-265 rwhp. see the sig. Getting 360-390 hp would be pretty darn difficult. However, the pride of knowing you beat a blown 4.6 with a N/A 4.6 would be nice. (but expensive)
As for GT-40 heads on a 4.6, A cam, and A cat = lies. Simply not possible. He MAY have dropped in a 5.0? (old engine, not the modular stroker) What year is this car?
