Default Explorer heads & carbed intakes?
I have a couple of 302s, I'll be assembling one of them for my 62 F100. I'll probably stroke it to a 347. I'm using a retrofit Comp Cams Thumpr roller cam and want to use GT-40 or GT-40p heads. I know about the header issues with the "p" heads but what about intakes? I have a Perfomer 289 that I would like to use (I already have it, lol).
Thanks

That intake should be fine, the changes were to the exhaust side and the spark plugs.

That's what I thought but needed to confirm it.
There is a certain temptation to put the 347 in my 93 vert though.
