Head Swap finally Done

Badass_yellowGT · 11-11-2002, 07:01 PM

Hello all
most of you were wondering how my head swap come out so here it is

well worth the money it cost me a total of
$1163.00 for the head swap kit from parkway ford
$ 631.00 for labor and new valve cover gaskets $88.00

________
$1794.00 for everthing and well worth it

as for the increase in power ooooooo yea big diferenceyou can feel the only problem now is my clutch will not take the power i`m making ,it slips at 3,000 rpm when i put my foot into it so i`ll have to wait until i install my new clutch to give real estimate either way if your gonna do it do it now the labor was cheap for me and done by someone who knows how to do it. also my fear of having to run premium all the time is gone absolutly no knocks while running mid grade gas.

if anybody wants the name of the place that installed my heads let me know he says he`s more than willing to do more as you can see he does not charge alot for the install all in all i`m real happy

one of these days i have to have my car dynoed i wonder what kind of power i`m making i basically have every bolt on you can get thats why i had better heads installed

Heck yeah, know exactly what you mean. That was the first thing I did when I got my car. Feels completely different from 3000 and up. Have fun with it.

Congrats on the new found HP. That price seems reasonable for the amount of performance you will gain.

Later,
