EXPLORER V8 QUESTION

If you have a '97 or higher 5.0, the GT-40 P heads are on it. They have their pro's and cons. They are a very good breathing head and are better than the standard GT-40's, but if you run any headers, you have to run the Motorsport headers designed for the P head. Standard headers won't fit - and most of the people I know that have made them fit regretted doing it.

If you end up not wanting them, and take them off - let me know. I'll take them off your hands...
