Good luck finding one. I haven't found an aftermarket company that makes one yet. I like to build a boss 302 with aussie 2Vs.

WHAT!? just hold tight there a minute son..

Must remember there are 2 versions of the 4v head. One is open chamber and the other is closed chamber. The closed chamber are the ones found on the Boss engines. Good luck finding those. Aussie 2V heads are the best of them. Don't know why anyone would go through the trouble and expense of putting any of these on a windsor. Today's aftermarket heads flow just as well. Or, Explorer heads for that matter. Anybody try a 351 with Explorer heads?

that's what my 408 that's going into the S10 has.. putting them on a stock 351w really makes a big difference, provided you open the exhaust ports up a bit

I had considered this notion....if I wasn't dead set on EFI, It's probably have been done by now since I have basically 2 sets of 351w longblock-worth of parts...

I want efi though, and I know it can be done, 1Sick88Tbird did it with some modification of factory stuff...but I don't have the skills and equipment to pull such a stunt.

As far as the 351 Clevor idea...how often do you encounter such a setup? lol
Makes me wonder what would make a better street setup, the Clevor headed 351, or a 351w with GT40Ps and a Lightning lower/Explorer upper..assuming cam and injectors remain consistent...

either way, it'd be 1 mean 351 with the right cam/intake/injector combo.. but i still vote clevor lol if you want to spend some big monies, buy aftermarket aluminum clevland heads.. they flow better than most aftermarket windsor heads

a 351w with P heads isn't a lightening motor, though lol.. different combustion chambers, different flow numbers, plug angle etc etc.. lol

I didnt say P heads, I said GT40s. The Lighting motor came out before the P heads, remember. I had a set, Gt40s with 1/2" head bolt holes which only came on 351Ws, remember. LOL. You can right me off if you want to but I did build engines for a living, and yes I have built a Lighting motor which I got my GT40 "non P" heads. ;) Customer bought Windor sr. heads and give me his old heads for a discount (which were off a 93 lightning).

Research, research, research!!! LOL!

The P heads would be a miniscule difference on an otherwise stock Lightning 351w....and yes, I do know my way around them, helped my friend Steve work on his a bit. Man, that was a sweet truck.

The P head's chambers are not more than 6 cc less than GT40, and the exh. valve is smaller, same size as an E7...but the "smoother" exh port makes up for that.

Looking at the pics of the TF intakes linked above....aren't those the same port style as the stock 351w intake?

Of course, no way in hell a stock truck upper will fit under a Tbird hood..


On a completely unrelated note, some feller stopped by Sunday...wanted to know if I'd buy a set of worked over E6 heads off of him for 200 bucks...made him a little mad when I said I've sped better heads than those...
