    My GT40P head swap

    Okay i finished my head swap about a week ago but time to post pics. I got the Gt40P's,injectors,manifolds,roller lifters, and mounting brackets off of a 97 explorer all for $75 at a junkyard. It took me about 2 days to swap them, but i think it went pretty smooth.
    Then i finally saved up enough money to buy the new Shiny FRPP shoty "P" specific headers, they are definetly an improvement , the stock shortys are very restrictive when u match them. Then in the middle of the swap my cousin "accidently" busted a bolt off in the head so that slowed us down. but other than that the swap was very smooth.

            no grinding, we had a brillo like pad on it to clean up the gasket surface. alot easier and fast.
