Hey just was just looking into buying a head and cam package, with businesses closing down I'm trying to find places they still do that sort of thing. Also wondering what kinda of prices these will set me back.

Or what should I buy to work my own head? Cant do machine work myself but can fo anything else easily enough.

For power wise I want around 150rwkw with a setup that's turbo friendly.

Thanks in advance for any help

what one would you recommend? i hear cms is good, but 1300 for the cam and regrind sounds like a really good deal.

any actual head and cam package you think would be suitable for me

I'd suggest calling each place to get some detailed info.

I've dealt with Hoppers Express Cylinder Heads a few times and do a good job. The last time I asked them about the Ford 4.0L packages, they were using Wade Cams' 1636 & 1673 profiles (now owned by Clive Cams). AFAIK, the 'bigger valves' are just the XR6 ones and there's minimal porting done on the heads. Ask for Trevor when you call.

CMS have had a lot of good comments and I'd suggest using them over Hoppers Express.
