![]() Everyone always talks and recommends a head swap.But how much hp can you actually expect from new heads,or from porting your stock ones?Also how hard is it to put the heads in yourself?Also someone mentioned a headswap kit for an older mustang gt in another thread,i think it was a 98 model.And i was wondering if there was such a kit for my 2000 gt?
And does anyone know a shop in the Tampa or New Port Richie area that could do my heads? |

![]() For the 99+ Gts, the only route to go for heads are either getting them ported by a professional (Lake Fox, etc.) or buying a set of heads from SHM or whoever else. All of them will be your 99+ GT PI heads, btw.

![]() So i can eather spend some money to get my stock heads ported,or i can spend alot of money buying stock heads that are already ported?I rather get my own ported then.
Anyone know a shop close to me that does that? |

![]() Just any shop that claims to be professional about it.
I would recommend Port Pros in Austin Texas, Lake Fox (or Fox lake) whatever; they have done stuff that MM&FF have written about. Houston Performance in Houston Texas does great work. I've seen alot of their cars on the street doing crazy hp. And finally, I believe SHM will do it too. |

![]() All of those places seem kinda far away.Problem is everyone always claims to be a professional,so i'd like to hear from people who have done it in my region.Also does anyone have before and after head porting HP numbers?
