Mustang Cylinder Head & Camshaft Guide (79-95)

Overview

This 1979-1995 Mustang cylinder head and camshaft guide will be an overview of the heads and cams that we offer and how they will coincide together. This will follow the guideline of a 1.6 rocker baseline, and factory bottom end 79-95 related 5.0L Mustangs only. There are too many variables to add into this in regards to aftermarket stroker kits or components. We hope this will help clarify any confusion with the numerous combinations that are offered through LMR.com. This guide will answer the popular questions of "Which cylinder heads work with which cams on my 5.0 Mustang motor?". It also shows which rocker arms and gaskets to use for the best performance when rebuilding your 5.0L and 5.8L motor. We stock all of the industry-leading brands such as SVE, Trickflow, Ford Performance, Edelbrock, and AFR.
