i am not 100% sure but i have been told they do.

nope no they do not, ea to au have single round port, ba has a streched round port due to dohc. have seen the intake manifold myself, and i assume the exhaust is the same.

its stretched round port due to 4 valves per cylinder not dohc

best thing to do is to grab a exhaust gasket of both engines,

overlay the au gasket over the ba one. if the ports on the au are with in the ba's ports and the bolt holes match up, well then i cant see too much of a problem.

its a long shot but worth the 20 odd bucks to find out.

cheers.joe.

bolt hole are different. 1 port has the holes diagonally opposite AU all the others are similar.

So its gone back to the way it was on the Pre EA head?
The XF had Oposing bolt holes.
