Of course by now there are some better (aluminum heads), but back then I was hitting 425-436rwhp(depending on weather/heat) on my stock headed cobra motor with a stock pullied vortech and that was plenty. I could of made more, but the block was the limitation and not the heads/intake or cam.

Conclusion..you guys are spoiled;)

If you've got $300 to spend, they're a good head. If you've got $1300 to spend, yeah, there's much better alternatives out there.

If you got money to spend the sky's the limit, but for the price ($300) GT40 heads are the shit.

It's NOT illegal. It's just frowned upon, like masturbating on an airplane.

for $300 (if thats what theyre going for, i dont know) theyre gonna give you the biggest return on your investment power-wise than any other mod you can do IMO. But it also depends on what your end goal is as well. The problem is when people start throwing even more money into them like good valvetrain and port work and suddenly youre into those heads for more or close to what you could have bought the better stuff with (AFR or TFS) and youd be making less HP with the GT40's

they're decent, but I prefer aluminum for the weight savings off the front of the car.

Ok well when compared to other street cars it's not fast... Most of us here live on the streets not the track... Ou don't catch fast mustangs in the streets with stock parts...

11 psi of boost. with some good heads you will be at 450hp with just 7 psi. Just because you can make power with them doesnt mean they are the top dog out there.

run that guys same setup but with alum. heads and I will put money down that it makes more power

But now I know u can make alot more.. 450 is well enough for me.. Im not sayin im gonna smoke everyone but ill get my respect. Now stop going on about ur flimsy aluminum heads..

300rwhp with a gt40 h/c/i is pushing it i think,i think only johnb has done it,if u got 1200 to buy an s-trim,you should have 1000 to spend on some heads
