'88 Ford 302 w/ 03 Cobra ported heads

ztrane · March 20th, 2007, 06:57 AM

Is it possible to fit the cobra heads from a 2003 (dohc) to the 5.0l?? If not, how much off are they? Anyone have bolt patterns?? Thanks

ztrane · March 20th, 2007, 07:31 AM

Nevermind, I think what I am going to do is get a 03 Navigator 5.4L DOHC block and build it for my race car. 32v is the way to go.

I suggest you read A LOT of material about engines in general before you start building a "race car".

"Facts" would be wondering if 351W heads would bolt up to a 302 block.

Asking if DOHC heads work on a pushrod motor is ignorance.

On topic: I think the swap will work, if you cover them in VTEC sauce.

ih8chevy · March 20th, 2007, 11:37 AM

no the 03 cobra heads dont even come close to fitting on the 5.0 block. and i suggest b4 u do anythin wit a 32v dohc 5.4 i would read a whole lot about motors, cause u seem to have no clue what the hell they are. jmo

GTXRacing · March 20th, 2007, 12:37 PM

Ok maybe I might have went over the edge on that one but dude... Have you seen a DOHC Cobra? Ok, now have you seen the 5.0l engines? ok...

So tell me do those engines even look the same?

Oh yeah, please don't go to Super 1 Foods asking for VTECH Sauce, that was a joke not a product

To add on to that, if you thought that a DOHC "head" will work in the 5.0 block, stop trying to work on your car and please pick up an manual on 5.0/5.8 blocks before asking questions like that. Everybody may ask a dumb dumb question like that but a question such as above will land you in the deepest pond of sludgy oils and mushy radiator fliud

Racinjason81 · March 20th, 2007, 12:53 PM

FYI there is a company that does make 32v heads for a 302

mikebert · March 20th, 2007, 01:06 PM

Off topic......... Do you know anyone that has ever used those heads? I looked into them a couple years ago and they claim some outrageous flow numbers but I have never been able to find anyone that has ever used them, flowed them or even touched them. I'm just curious if they are as good as what ARAO says they are.

Stangzilla · March 20th, 2007, 11:12 PM

Well I am just takin a shot in the dark here but I would think if they were that good someone that one of us knows or herd of prob would have used them.. Maybe .. Maybe not..
