ALright, this '96 Mustang GT4.6 is my first car, and my dad and I have already had our hands full swapping the motor (He's got Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, so I've done most of the work). ANyway, before we drop-in the new 4.6 motor,I'd personally like to know if it's too much trouble to port the heads for the power gain, or if this even works.
We got about a 20-30 bhp gain from our old Pontiac manifolds and heads when we ported 'em, but the intake manifold's plastic on this car, but I'm wondering if it's worth the trouble of ripping these heads off just to get them ported and polished. (We port-n-polish by hand, save a few((HUNDRED)) bucks)
Thanks!
