ok so i ordered some brand new heads for the 4.0 ohv ford v6. the seller (ebay) even had me give him the cast number on my old heads. the only difference between them is the exhaust ports, the new ones are more round and smaller then the factory ones, and the other difference is in the combustion chamber. other then that, the valves are the same size, all bolt holes line up, all coolant holes line up, everything.
pictures tell all.
exhaust ports
overall
my options are, return them and get my money back, OR port the exhaust areas and also "port" or modify the size of the combustion chamber/valve area.
or if i leave the heads as is, what would happen? performance loss?
any help or comments are appreciated.
