sirsureshot39 said:Matt, I recommend saving up some more cash for some aluminum heads and an nice aftermarket intake. Those parts your going to look at are going to net you maybe 10-15hp. Think about the long run and what you really want out of your car, if you want performance, then your wasting your money looking at those mentioned above. If your on a tight budget, send your current pieces out to get ported and cleaned up, dont bother replacing them with mor(excuse my language) crappy parts.

Rugged said:Common man you know as well as I do that the mods he is doing will give him 40-50 horsepower easily. I swapped a set of ported cobra heads + gt-40 intake + good cam and picked up almost a full second in the 1/4. Thats alot more than 10-15 hp. I bet I got 50-60 hp easily.
Rugged said:Heads: They will have 3 bars on each end of the head. They are vertical. They will also have "GT" stamped on the outer lip where the head bolts go through. Also they will have "F3ZE" stamped under the head. It's near the pushrod holes.

tmoss said:The GT40P heads have 4 vertical bars and "GTP" cast into the corner head flange - don't overlook those either. MY bone stock 88GT made 200HP, made 219 with a ported lower, and after going GT40P heads and intake I'm at 60HP (with stock cam) gain over the stock numbers without any tune (tune in progress). A good cam selection would add significant HP to that.
If you need to stay emissions, look for a 96-early 97 Explorer intake with the internal EGR passages like your stock intake. The TB face on the upper will have a rectangular whole for the emmissions, so you can check by popping off the TB. Take the 65mm TB also - requires some minor work to convert, but it's worth it.
stang2841 said:i understand sirsureshot as well
get some afr's and say a trickflow intake and u got alot more then what those GT40s and explorer intake will give you
tmoss said:What color are the injectors? Can you take a pic of the intake? Has the TB been converted for use on a Stang yet?
