'04 before/after head/valvetrain/cam differences? 1 Month, 2 Weeks ago  
I am interested to know what exactly is the difference between the pre and after '4 Road Star Engines.

The 04 and up are 68 CCs bigger.

They changed the valve design in 06.

Yeah right I knew that.

I want to know inside the engine what is altered.

Difference between heads, difference between cams etc.

Word has it that the pre '04 cam can not be used in the post '04 engines.
I want to know why.
