I have a 1998 Mercury Mountaineer 5.0. It was manufactured in 2/1998.

It has the older style exhaust manifolds.

Does that mean that I have GT40 heads and not GT40P heads ?

What are the differences between pre-2/1998 and post 2/1998 5.0 engines ?

Angled versus straight spark plugs. Casting letters by the first cylinder. Casting of three bars versus four on end.
