Milling heads

[Steves LX]

Does anyone know how much I would have to mill my heads to get them from 64CC to 58 or 56CC?

Well, what is your compression ratio right now?

I looked mine up and it's 9.1:)

[facemelter71]

It would take some to mill it.Then im pretty sure that your lower intake mating surface to the head would be comprimised.Since your lowering the head further to the block surface,it wouldnt be a very tight seal.Might want to get some more opinions though.

Well right now I am at 9.5:1 and you my friend are full of sh!t with your 9.1:1 ratio. You are at 10:1.:)

You'll be playing the pushrod length/rocker shim game again...

:nono:

Google "99' Mountaineer V8 compression" or "99' Mountaineer V8 specifications"... and you will have your answer my friend....:D

All this darn talk has been making want to put a P-headed 351 and a five speed down in my tin-can coupe and whoop up on some certain UMTR boys in this thread! :evilgrin:

Dont let Steve fool ya.The next time he dump's the clutch on that trans its gonna crap out its internals like a gutted pig.:bigthumb
Just messin with ya Steve.LOL

[mustangjon]

rule of thumb is .05 per cc .30 is usually max on most heads before intake machining required

It better not do that. I just need it to survive a few more events this year.

I don't think this needs to be said, i'm sure everyone knows, but remember that milling heads also takes away from your piston to valve clearance, so keep that in mind when selecting your cam. I wanted to do my heads, but it's a good thing i didn't or else the cam i have wouldn't have cleared.

You better hope Vicki doesn't see it.

Yes I know. My pistons have been cut for up to .650 lift.

I did and guess what I found? I found different compression ratio's for that year and the reason behind that is Ford started using the GT40 iron heads as well on the 99's. Those are 64CC heads and that my friend will take your compression straight south of the border vs the GT40P headed motors. So the compression ratio you found is going to be for a gt40 headed motor and not a P headed motor.

Good Lord! :eek:

How can she miss it??? It's big, white, and has 4 headlights...

[Steves LX]

O.K. I stand corrected Curt I beleive they stop using the GT40's in 97.

You wadstick I thought you were talking about a motor.:tard:

[Stangman]

If I brought another one over I bet she wouldnt even think anything of it! :flipoff:

Only if you knew. My balls would go from the bowl of ice in the bedroom straight to the freezer and so would yours. And were friends and all but not that good of friends to have our balls at any given time that close to one another.:lol::lol:

[Stangman]

Dude... that was funny! :lol::lol:

Trying not to laugh in an office is a bitch!

HAHAHA,OFFICE SPACE.Your Milton,and thats my stapler.:tard:
