Head Swap

GTMustang96 · 03-14-2003, 12:47 AM

I want to swap my 96 stock heads for a pair of heads off a 2000 mustang GT. They are the PI heads as i understand it. How much h/p would i gain by swaping out my old heads for these?

parkway says they got an additional 52 wrhp on a 98 gt with a aod i myself have not dynoed mine yet. you will need more than just the heads though

2000 heads
2000 intake
heater core tube
and a new oil pan dip stick

What is all involved in swaping out the heads? What is needed? And how much do you think it will run me? Thanks

Don't forget the 99+ camshafts to go with the heads and intake.
