Best Heads To Put On A 5.3?????

I'm getting ready to do a block up replacement of everything on my '03. I'm having trouble finding aftermarket heads that will go on a 5.4. Any suggestions?

There is no aftermarket heads for the Mod motors.
Best you can do is have them ported.
I think Patriot has the best price!

Different terms I guess, aftermarket heads to me are patriot, fox lake, etc. There are no aftermarket castings, ie. Edelbrock, but there are "aftermarket" heads, stock casting or not, they are an aftermarket performance product.
