i have been looking to try and do the pi head swap to my 96gt. i found the DTA heads are 1500.00 and come ported. i was wondering if any one else had used there heads and how good they are. also i will be steping up the cam, so if you have run the swap and have some cam info, plz pass it along. thanks.

What kind of cam were you looking to put in? Are you willing to put in new springs / etc for the cam or no? What mods do you have already?

Throw us a bone..

Certain substitutions can be made to the base package. Aftermarket camshafts, stainless steel valves, ARP head studs, etc. Contact DTA for information and pricing. As a dealer for ProPower, DTA carries the complete ModMax line of components and can offer them at competitive pricing.

Contact info is: Phone-832-556-0441; wheelersd@yahoo.com

will you get ripped-off go-to www.modulardepot.com and read the stickie at the top of the "Depot Forum" he has ripped people for over $60k over the years and its a wonder he is still around.


better bet would be Jason @ SteenRacing 757-480-RACE or www.steenracing.com

I just ordered my complete headswap kit from parkway performance (Ford in Georgia). Great guys to deal with. The do not offer any porting though.

If you're looking for ported, most will tell you patriot, fox lake..
