Thanks all, the firing order is the non HO variant. The heads do not have any lines on the front, maybe one but they definitely aren't gt40's. I will know more when I take the intake off. It has a soft knock in it now so I need to do something quick before stuff goes bad wrong.

Engine Tech / 5.0 Engine Evaluation
Hey all new guy here. I was told to check out this site because it specializes with my power plant. I have a 1994 2wd 5.0 Ranger. I have pulled the codes and it is from a 1986 TBird per the numbers. I have noticed that my setup has a MAF and this wasn't on the 86 cars as I can find. I am wanting to possibly rebuild it and bolt on a set of GT40 heads and intake (which valve springs should I get). I know roller is where it's at but I am perfectly happy with an old fashion flat tappet camshaft as that's what should be in it. I would like to know if you guys could take a look at these engine pics and possibly tell me what I have going on here. I want to keep the fi and I am from old carb stuff. Also does anyone make a performance chip for these engines. Lastly whats a good camshaft for the GT40 top end that will not require an aftermarket stall. Thanks in advance and I look forward to hanging out here if yall will have me.
