dooods!
i'm getting heads for the cobra!
I can't believe the deal, but it is kosher, so i'm jumping on it!

what is a pair of 4v heads from a '98 cobra, with bowl work and pocket porting, fresh guides/springs, with cams(!) worth?

You really should look at the new FRPP heads for our 4v's. They're NEW, and the same head that was on the FR500 mule a while back. They're supposed to flow 20% more air out of the box than stock heads. They go for 1500/pair.

the FR500 heads also require a different intake... something along the lines of 99+ cobra intake....
