im working on a 97 ford that has a 5.8l the head needs replace, but i can find one. i have found alot of 5.0l. will those heads work on a 5.8? thank

 

'97 F150 didn't come with a 5.8. What you got, F250?

 

Yes its a friends 250.

 

The heads are the same (both E7's) except the bolt holes are bigger on the 5.8. Im sure a machine shop could make the holes bigger if you cant find a set of 5.8 heads.

Ive got aftermarket 5.8 heads on the 5.0 in my Mustang and had to use special washers to reduce the size of the bolt holes.
