Bitch'n heads [Wink] They're good for a stock camed 12 second 5.O or piss ported for a mid 7 second NMRA drag racing beast. Arguably the last small block ford head you'll ever need to buy.

Speaking of simple 351W's with F cams, TFS heads and a T trim, check out this effective combo:

EDIT: Doh! He changed the combo! It use to be much more basic and ran high 9's. Check these out:

No and no.

Also there are a few different types of high ports...

there are the originals that came in both iron and aluminum and there is the 'new' re-release version. I'm by far no expert on these, so you should probably call TFS and ask them for more details.

The old Irons would be great for a turbo project....if that's what your still doing.

The're an inline 20 degree head with 1.94/1.6 valves. The intake valve has been shifted .100 'in' to the cylinder to un-shrowd the air-charge. The exhaust has been shifted .060 in the same direction.

The ones for sale on this site a while ago are the iron versions...

Any turbo kit that bolts up to these *may* have slight fitment issues due to the raised exhaust. Probably nothing major though.

i almost have enough for an entire longblock. if i get put into detail soon at carmax (way higher paying) ill do a turbo project.
if i dont, then ill stick with silly juice.
ill know in a few weeks. hopefully i get put into detail [Wink]
but what i need to do is start getting all thses 351W swap parts together so i can save myself a huge headache [dance]

edit: my fingers suck tonight [Roll Eyes]
