im goin with the explorer gt40 set up heads,u/l intake, how much of a difference would it 2 put em on with out porting em as 2 porting em? is there a big difference power gain wise!!!
--------------------
Maybe I should get drunk off my HATERADE elsewhere?
I was slow to take the hint, so I'm taking a break from CAFords for the rest of the month. Now excuse me while I enjoy some cereal. Mmmmm Mmmmm good. Who else wants to join me?

if you port them or someone ports them for cheap then its worth it...if they charge you over 400 to port the heads i would just save the 400$ then sell the gt40 heads and get some trick flow heads...
if your on a budget then i would just run the gt40 stock no porting..good luck

$480 is about the difference between selling them and getting a set of trickflow heads, which not only will make more power but also drop 60lbs off the nose of the car...

So many on here should be chiming in here saying that GT40 Irons Ported are GREAT!!! heck some will say they are just as good aluminum heads..
I suggest you just throw them on bro.. the only way to really gain these high RWHP #'s with GT40's is with a tune.. Since you are on a budget a tune is out of the question I'm guessing.. porting them will be a waste
