Can i put stock 1987 heads on my 86 mustang without having to cut valve reliefs or totally replace the flat top pistons.
Thanks for any help...

From what I recall other members saying, yes it's possible, but they are a very close fit. You should clay the pistons to make absolutely sure.

I haven't personally done it, so I can't say for sure.
