These heads come with a tag warning that you have to have aftermarket pistons. These aren't the usual 70cc combustion chamber ones you usually see. Quote Selected

picked up a decent 1984 5.0L Thunderbird Reply #43 – March 12, 2018, 04:49:43 AM Hasn't got out yet. Still a bit of work left to do.Yes it is a GM auto. 700R4 right now. I know it isn't going to love long behind the 6.0L. But it was dirt cheap so I don't care lol. I am on the fence about building it or just throwing a 4L80E in it. Planning to throw a 7875 turbo on this and shooting for 700whp. So the 4L80 is my best bet. Quote Selected
