Head recommendation for 390

By Grant - 08/12/2000 3:08:32 PM; IP 205.188.196.42

Thanks to all that replied to my head/intake code questions. Based on them being quite common and having no real perf. features/potential, what bolt-on, readily/easily available Ford code heads or even aftermarket heads would you recommend for a 390GT? NOT a strip car...just want a little more fun <grin> but not thrilled with $1,200 for Edelbrock Performer RPM aluminum ones...or are they really worth the $$$?

Is this REALLY a bolt on project? Any other mods or pair of hands required when adding a diff. set of heads? Probably smart to do cam at same time? Honest enough to admit this is something I've never done all by myself...and my memory from doing this 20 yrs ago is foggy...

Thanks!

Grant
