I Also found these for $550.. I think that I will go this route ??? I HAVE A SET OF GT-40 HEADS THAT ARE COMPLETELY REBUILT WITH MANLEY VALVES AND COMP CAMS SPRINGS NEW GUIDES AND SEATS ALSO A NEW SET OF 1.7 RATIO ROLLER ROCKERS AND A SET OF SHORTY HEADERS THIS A CHEAP WAY TO WAKE UP THAT OLD FOX.... What do you guys think?? I have a lot of plans for my 95 5.0 GT but would like to do it little by little... Tom

Either way you go sounds good but the deal with the headers seems like the best. That's funny, I bought a set of gt-40's off a guy for $400 too. They had Crane Cams 1.7 rockers and new springs. I just had them worked over with new seals and a valve job. Deff wakes up the car.

Just an update...
I bought a set of GT40P heads which have been recently gone through completely with a 3 angle valve job. Ready to bolt on.. Just curious if I should upgrade the springs ? eventually I would like to go to a mild cam upgrade.. Thanx, Tom

Much easier to do the springs off the car and if you plan on going with any aftermarket cam i would recommend putting a nice set of springs on the heads it will save you the hassel of doing it on the car later.

Thank-you for the advice I'm looking for some springs now for the heads.. Any ideas on where to look? I've sent an e-mail to Trick flow asking for a cam recomendation and spring recommendation...Hoping to hear from them soon.. Just wondering if there were any other recomendations from anyone else...
I have the heads.. GT40 intake on the way. Will be buying underdrive pulleys, 3.73 gears and cai... Thanx Tom
