Were buying the heads bare, and building them right, so im not too worried about em. I wasnt driving at the time, but i hope it won.

Are you buying 03/04 bare heads? I would love to buy new bare 03/04 heads but Ford only sells the heads complete.

Dont forget a nice Upgraded HV Oil Pump... I like my MMR unit, and for $200 its cheap insurance...

with the increased Compression you shouldnt need too much boost, i plan on a 9:1 block with 14-15#s MAX and then Spray a direct port 100 shot on top of that... should be fun on the track and still really streetable and mild as a DD...

There is no way I'd start a rebuild with a block that had that kind of internal failure, new blocks can be had pretty reasonably.
Were getting a brand new 5.4L NVH block from Ford.

My heads may be for sale soon, but theyll be complete. Theyll be cheaper than from Ford too. Im going to have Billy@MSX go through them, to make sure everything is good first.

I was thinking around 18-19#s on my race tune MAX. I want my truck to be nasty on only boost. Ill be definitly be upgrading my oil pump.

I'd like to be first inline for them if they don't have any damage.
