pi heads for nowFallenPhoenix said:don't want to hijack the post, but it's related. Are the aftermarket heads available for the 4.6 all basically PI heads that are ported? Or are there heads with modified combustion chambers, larger valves, etc?

I had the heads installed and noticed an oil consumption issue (about a quart in 300 miles). I took it in and at first we thought it was valve seals. Terry sent out new seals at no charge overnight. We then discovered a great deal of play in the guides. At this point, Terry sent call tags for the heads and is going to completely go through them and replace anything out of spec, etc. He is also picking up a portion of the labor for the re-install. If necessary, he has commited to replace the heads completely.
I believe for the price of the heads Patriot has gone as far as any customer can expect. Terry and Don have been helpful beyond belief. My investment will be a small portion of the labor and replacement of the gaskets/head bolts.
Like I say, my recommendation would be to give him a call and ask him a few questions.
