so a 1996 4.6L lincoln came in with an owner who KNEW that he needed a motor apparently. So once the old one came out. I gave it a quick once over and decided I'd offer the place we got the new one from $100 for the heads. Well I got them. So now I have a set of heads to play around with (port polish etc)

So what are some things to do to get these heads poppin'?? (these are the non-pi heads) I wanted these anyways so I can go supercharged, but I had planned on doing my own. this was just an unexpected bonus.

Anyone with some pointers on what helps and what doesn't throw them experiences out for me!!!

Lincoln Towncars have 4.6 SOHC's in them.

the best thing to-do is send them to a shop. doing port work on your own will only make things worse.
