the tw's are WAY better. the p's are detuned cobra heads made to be better on emissions and use stock size valves.... booo

at least get the ford racing GT40X heads if you like that style, you wont even really get that much of a power gain with the p's.

Actually with a good set of spings and a cam you can take ported p heads well beyond 300rwhp. I have seen the dynos. and from what i understand if you have someone good do the port work you can out flow any boxstock head. On the down side those are really expensive cast heads. For the money you are talking about I would spend another 200 and go trick flow.

TW, definitely. Also, you could find a lot more info if you searched.

Aluminum is also going to save you some weight.

Good choice, now you will get the flow without the weight of iron heads.

yeah its nice to live so close to summit,the only draw back is its in ohio.there is nothing to do here and the roads are horrible.but summit has improved from what it used to be,if you wanted anything for a ford you had to wait for it.that company is chevy biased.but it is nice to be able to order it and go pick it up.got my tw's yesterday,now i just got to figure out what push rod length i need cuz i know i cant use the stockers and they have to be hardened.
