    Im sick of my mustang being slow so i decided to swap it to PI :noes:. Got a real good deal on the heads/cams and valve covers from a 2002 GT. I just ordered the Ford Head Changing Kit 397-M-6067-D46 off jegs. Will i need anything else to complete the swap? I already have the PI Intake installed with proper parts.

    you didn't need new valve covers....they are the same as yours. You can sell them.

    you may want new front cover gaskets while your at it.
    your chains should be fine.
    think you have the rest.
    good luck.
