GT 40 Heads off explorer?

[DeanZanke]

I Know that the 5.0 explorer came with gt40 heads and intake but would anyone be able to help me out and know what year explorer they came on because i know there are different types of gt40 heads and how do u tell them apart

All 5.0 Explorers came with GT-40P heads...

All 5.0 Explorers came with GT-40P heads...

x2, don't forget if you use gt-40p they take a gt-40p specific header

X3 especially on tha header the flange is square if im not mistaken I see a lot of people puttin the wrong headers on the gt40p's

Not 100% correct.

96-97 1/2 have the true GT40 heads F3ZE casting #. All the later years have GT40P's. You can tell by the plug angle, as the GT40P are straighter and the GT40 heads have "GT" cast right in them and 3 bars at the front of the heads vs. 4 for the GT40P.

I went and looked for pics to show...here is a GT40P

GTP cast in the corner..

GT40 head.... see 3 bars and the GT in the front corner
