1996-2001 were the years they put a 5.0L in an Explorer. The motors had minor differences throughout the years, but they were all GT40.

97-00 have the gt40p heads if I not mistaken.

The gt40p heads have relocted spark plugs. This may cause issue whilr trying to remove the plugs cause the headers will be in the way (do a search for Urban96 he has a why around that). Stock for stock gt40p heads make more power then standard gt40 heads.
