Also, you should look into it, but I think the Shelby heads may require a specific rocker arm/assembly system. I'm not sure Ersons or T&D's will work, but check it out before you believe me. I'm no expert.

I wish other head manufacturers like Dart, World, Brodix, etc. would come to market with an FE head. Maybe soon.
Not so for the Shelbys. They take anything from original (MR) valve train on up. Ersons may require some mods- I'm not sure. Barry, Keith and Mike LeFevers who helped design them would know. Mike is often overlooked here but is a superb FE builder and member of the 200 MPH Club.
My Harland Sharps bolted right up with FPP billet stands, spacers and hardened shafts.
