    Is This Too Good To Be True?

     



    Hey guys, I'm asking this for a friend. He is building up a stock '93 5.0. He plans on cam, heads, long tube headers, and down the road a super charger. He was told this weekend to find a engine out of a wrecked '98 or newer Explorer and all that he needs is the 303e cam and some headers and he's off to the races. Are these engines really already that built?
    As always thanks for the info. peace Bud

    Thumbs up yes

     



    Yes, the newer Explorer 5.0s are built with GT-p heads, which are much more capable than the stock heads. They also come with the gt-40 or cobra injection stuff which is worth alot of money. Definately a good item to get ahold of.

    Hey Basher, thanks for the reply. This is what we were told. GT-40
    heads. Cobra injection system. Heavy duty rods and crank.
