Best heads?

1998GTstang · May 30th, 2009, 02:05 AM

Hey guys, I'm lookin to get some more power than the stock 225 horses the 1998 gt came with. I'm looking at different heads and my plan so far is to get Heads, CAI, Thottle Body, bigger injectors(if needed), some 3.55s or 3.73 gears, and a shorty shifter. feel free to post advice on any of the parts but im really stuck on what heads to get. A local guy is selling some parts are they compatible? theres a link in the next post
Thanks a bunch and I'm loving the forums!

werent the lightnings dohc? or am I dumb...if not yeah I believe they should work(not the cobra ones though, duh) count the bolt pattern or somethin to double check. and yes PI heads are your best bet. get em cheap, take em to a machine shop, good as new. about 1200 total
