Hey, that 97 5.0 article put the heads on before exhaust changes or intake changes - no wonder it didn't make more power!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...... Heads are a great idea in terms of being there to support future goals for the car, but if I could only pick one... it'd be the intake.

WERD!!!!

1. Much easier.
2. 1/2 the price..(or less)
3. great gains on a stock car.

I mentioned before that I know 2 different guys that took cars with gears and exhaust and put on an intake, MAM and TB, and they said the car felt like a totally different machine.

You can do ALL that PLUS a homemade CAI for the price of heads.
