Hey squid-

Put it this way. We're big into the Explorer engines over here. We've got a few of them running 12.20's with P heads, and Explorer uppers and lower intakes, along with exhaust, roller rockers, CAI's, 3.73's, and timing. I'd say if you need heads, buy an Explorer engine from the boneyard, you'll get the GT40P heads, and the intakes together for $500, sell the block (unless you want it) for $200, and you'll have for sure, a low 13 second car for $300.00 No reason to blow $900 for heads, and $600 for intake kits to go no faster...

Good luck!
