I don't remember for sure, but it seems like the cam was better, and some of the parts were better with the turbo head. If it's not a big deal, I'd grab the head too. If you don't, you should still get everything else, including the intake manifolds (upper and lower), TB, etc. They changed over the years, too. In fact, the whole Ford turbo project reminds me a lot of the Chevrolet mechanical fuel injection of the late 1950's/early 1960's. Every year something was different, and it made it very difficult to mix parts together from different years. The easiest method would be to just get EVERYTHING from the head up, possibly minus the head.

Take care,
