Rick 91GT Mustang Master Nov 29, 1999 9,692 95 99 PA Jun 30, 2005 #2 Jun 30, 2005 #2 similar valve reliefs, different pistons (forged) Should not be any issue in just swapping

Click to expand... nope, 86 had E6 heads and forged flat top pistons. It is the piston design that limits your head or cam choices on that engine. 85 to mid 92 are FORGED
