Yes it does, 99 heads are windsor heads and have different value covers and the timing cover has a few different bolts. I had ported my stock heads, you should have a pro do a value job on them and also if you are going to run the stock springs with those cams you should have the value stems cut. I would not pay more than $250 for the heads
