heads ?

sgrcltpunk · June 27th, 2008, 11:22 PM

i was wondering i know with old cars you can swap heads with lets say a 351 to 429 heads and make power anything like that for my windsor 2v

SWEET2KSTANG · June 27th, 2008, 11:37 PM

nope. 4.6/5.4 2v heads are pretty much the same, no advantages to either one. there is not an aftermarket company that is making their own casting as of yet either.

dude496 · June 28th, 2008, 06:20 AM

Like sweet said there is no aftermarket casting for our heads....but that does not mean that our stock head setup is the only option out there. You can have your heads ported and polished, or buy heads from a company that have gone through and ported and polished. Cams will also wake up the air flow quite a bit. Read around in the forums, you will see all of this discussed numerous times.

dude496 · June 28th, 2008, 06:21 AM

oh and almost forgot...you could always swap heads from a 4v.

sgrcltpunk · June 29th, 2008, 12:04 AM

well how much does the 4v conversion cost and how much would it be to get my heads ported and polished if i sent someone my heads

MustangMatt96GT · June 29th, 2008, 12:09 AM

put some NPI stockers on there... haha

sgrcltpunk · June 29th, 2008, 12:16 AM

sgrcltpunk · June 29th, 2008, 12:18 AM

how much hp do you get off of the differnt stage port and polishes and what do you have to change to run stage 2 heads

SteviGX · June 29th, 2008, 01:17 AM

go to mmr's website. they give a you guestimates

superbeef1000 · June 29th, 2008, 09:30 AM

yeh could get some nice 30 hp from stage 2 and with some good cams maybe add 15 more hp plus it will sound like a beast

sgrcltpunk · June 29th, 2008, 11:09 AM

what would i have to change to do that would i have to get a tune would what kind of lift cams could i do

sgrcltpunk · June 29th, 2008, 12:15 PM

any one know the biggest cam i can run on stock pistons with out hitting the valves

MustangMatt96GT · June 29th, 2008, 12:17 PM

i ran a comp 270 no problems...

sgrcltpunk · June 29th, 2008, 12:20 PM

i was wondering would .500 work or need to stay below .300

MustangMatt96GT · June 29th, 2008, 12:32 PM

.500 wat? lift? your PI cams have .530 lift

BUt PTV isnt from lift ethier. Its all from a combination of lift, and duration... the longer the valve stays open the more chance that the piston could hit the valve.
