need some advice

well i bent a valve in my 00 gt and i have trying to figure out what to do.should i have this head fixed,or buy a diff set,or maybe buy a complete motor to just swap into my car then later build the **** outta my factory 4.6? i dont have a lot of cash to blow on it right now,but i would like something fast and i wanna try to do something to get more power from it since i have to pull the head off....any ideas or tips???

option 1: replace valves
option 2: replace valves with oversized valves and bronze guides (would need seats reground) then maybe beehive valve springs
option 3: drop a 99+ 4.6 in and slowly build your 4.6 engine
option 4: buy a cheap DD and save up for a 4V swap or build your engine

I'd do 2 or 4. It's not like the heads are a huge restriction on these cars anyways. How did you bend a valve?
