Its just cheaper and less of a headach to just get a new car or get a new engine and sell your old one.

Jack up the radiator cap and drive a Cobra under it. Seriously, you would go broke piecing together those heads. You would also need the harness and ECU and God knows what else.

You probably only need one of these threads. You'd need a new front cover, cobra harness, cobra intake/heads/cams, I think new exhaust manifolds, and I'm sure there are other things.
