Fords F303 I personally wouldn't too much go over 220 @ 50 and tighter than 112 lobe centre on a 5.0 D/D.. Better breathing heads can take more lift or more the point they keep flowing at higher lift.. Check with your head flow charts ...As a guide...

I'd go the F303 too but, I'd throw those heads away...they're rubbish.

Depends which GT40 heads and where in the lift range?
If you look at average flow over stock you can see part of the reason they don't stack up... Obviously flow figures aren't the whole story either. It's the quality of flow and other things like chamber design that makes the difference. Quite simply they're an old design that doesn't perform. You could get them improved by porting but you need to know that whoever is doing the work knows what they're doing otherwise you've blown your dough that could have been used on a better choice out of the box. |
