I have a set of E5AE heads off my 85 mustang with 1.74int. and 1.50ex valves. i was wondering if these would be a better setup than the stock heads out of my 90 mustang i belive are E7TE?? if im not mistaken the valves out of theses are 1.60int. and 1.50ex??? any imput would be helpful.... also the 85 motor had an aftermarket cam that had markings F14 i am sure this is not a factory ford cam beings the markings would begin with E---- so can anybody clear this up any...

I don't think they are a good choice. And I think the E7TE's have a 1.84" intake

GT-40s have 1.84s, the E7s were a small valve, like a 1.60 or so. I recently added some 1.84s to my E7s!

Size is dictated by port size. Bore/port the intake ports larger on the heads, you gain intake volume as well - larger or different valves are usually needed when you do this also. Sorry if I didn't type it right, hard to explain it but so well.
