why?? the three valve heads have reliability issues, either stick with the 2 valve heads or go for a 4 valve swap sacrifice your low end and increase the top end performance

Why not just use a good set of ported 2valve heads?

24v 32v

i wanna swap the heads to eventually super charge the truck i'm working on making the baddest tail gate truck you've ever seen this is why i am asking about the heads because Ford did not make a super charged 4.6L in 07 that i know of i had my eye on trick flow top end i've thought of useing a 03 mustang cobra engine but idk what my challenges for the will be any other ideas?

#1 figure out what you want to do

#2 make a plan and stick to it

#3 a 2 valve 5.4 would be a better choice due to the low end torque over the 32 valve motor
