Well in an attempt to save some hard earned cash I managed to ruin any chance I ever had of coming out ahead. I'll spare you all of the details and just cut straight to the chase.
I'm currently in the market for the best set of heads to put on my 2 valve 5.4 JLP shortblock.
Something went through the number one piston about 200 miles into it's new life. I need things rebuilt and replaced. The truck is being tore back down and we'll see exactly what was at fault. In the mean time I'm scrapping the old heads and going with a completely different setup on top.
Question is which heads do I go with.
I'm pretty narrowed down to Fox Lake, VT, or somebody else, note the disclaimer lol
What are your thoughts?
