GT40p's???
 
Hey guys- it's been a few years since I got rid of an 86GT... so I missed it and just bought an 89GT :)

The guy told me it supposedly has GT40p heads -I don't know how to tell! I know the cam shakes the entire car though! I think I'll tear it down soon, but in the mean time is there anyway to tell if these are GT40p's? Also- are those any good? What do they come off of... Explorer?
I have no idea what kind of cam, pistons, or anything else since I bought it last night. I did hit a rain shower and whipe out on an interstate bridge and end up head on into traffic on the way home because of the hard clutch and Mickey T's! Nothing like a near death experience to make your week. :D

I believe the gt40p's had the four bars across the front similar to this. If you pull the valve cover, should be stamped in top of head.

"GTP" will be seen on the passenger front just below the #1 header - and yes, they have 4 vertical bars (vs GT40 3-bar & "GT") cast into the front of the head.

Thanks guys... I'll check -I'm wondering if they are not stock though because the spark plugs are angled
