The cut outs look the same for the most part. May just be a different design? Not sure.
 






I hope the difference is only design.
And last question - is necessarily also change head screw for new or I can use old?

Many thanks.
 






If you are pulling the heads, you need to get a new set of head bolts. Ford uses stretch bolts, so they shouldn't be re-used.
 






Just about every gasket "set" I found for the 1991-1994 OHV motor had the paper intake gasket and cork valve cover gasket.

We went to ford and got the metal lower intake gasket and rubber valve cover gasket. I felt that since the metal was already in the engine from the factory that I'd put another metal one back instead of using the aftermarket paper gasket.

The shop I got my gasket "set" from gave me a discount since I didn't take the valve cover gaskets or lower intake gasket (most places won't do something like that)

And as mentioned already.. you will need a new set of head bolts..
