they will work for you ......
but 1150 dollars can get you a better set of heads
the price shown is a per/head so ($575 X 2 = $1150) .....

Those heads will add around 30-35 hp over the stock E7's, and when you know for sure what head you're going with for sure, then we can get you a cam.

I agree with Reggie, there are better heads out there for that kind of money. If it were me, I'd check out TFS Twisted Wedge, AFR heads, or Edelbrock Performer heads. Don't get the biggest, though, unless your building an all out track engine. All will work with a GT-40 intake.

Tri-State Cylinder Head - Chevy, Ford, Small Block, Performance, Aluminum Cylinder Heads at $800 for the pair. They're very similar to the GT40X but slightly higher-flowing.
Here's a tech article with some dyno numbers
