Pulled these from the yard today, GT40P heads for a 302. Just so happens I have a 302 that could use an upgrade ounce it runs.

Why 2 sets? I mean, w hy not? Serendipitously that these should be in 2 trucks sitting side by side

Nice find, d id they come off easy?  Whenever I take off a major component in a u-pull-it yard I am always afraid I am going to get halfway done and then stuck for lack of tools.  I suppose this job was mostly lots of head studs and bolts?

Got them just under 40 a piece. Took less than 5 hours to pull both sets from complete engines. I debated getting the upper and lower intakes as well since they make a decent upgrade but it would only be to sell both, my truck still keep its carb and they ate efi   units

I had to disassemble pretty much everything. Upper and lower intakes, headers, lots of brackets and hoses and wires. All came apart pretty easy minus a couple stripped heads. Luckily I bring damn near every tool I could possibly need including stripped bolt sockets. With an extra set of hands we went from in tact engine bays to pulled heads in under 5 hours

If you need parts I’m planning to sell a set and could ruin back for the intake manis

I appreciate the offer but I currently have nothing to bolt them to. Every time I hit up a bone yard I always keep an eye out f or interesting finds like those . I’m in the Chicagoland area so unless it placed in the yard that day it is picked over immediately.
