I was looking at cylinder heads for 96-98 gt 2v engines and saw the Ford Racing High Performance Cylinder Heads which say they add 35 hp, then I saw Ford Racing's PI Cylinder Heads which says it will work on the 96-98 if you get a different intake. I was wondering which cylinder head would produce more power. Any help would be appreciated.
