As far as fitment, valvetrain, etc do you know if it is a direct bolt on or does it require some work like the volvo head?

Go do a search over at Turboford. Quite a few over there have done it.

You can learn a lot over at TF about the Dual Plug heads. Put "onesillynotch" in for username search and "DP Head" as the actual search string and you should get some good info.

Thanks Brian I done a search earlier and from what I found it seems like a direct bolt on, just needs hardened valve seats.
The Go-fast bug has a hold of me since I found out there is a guy at our local track running a turbo 2.3 going mid to high 6's on the 1/8 in a mustang.
