Well the best price you'll find is on ebay if you look for a set of used low mileage heads and buy a new intake from Summit Racing as well as the rest of the parts you will need (gaskets, heater hose, etc.) You can do it this way for about $600-$800 depending on how much you pay for parts. If you demand all new parts, check out Parkway Ford in GA. They sell the entire kit for $1320 new shipped to your door.

Pi = Power improved... in 1999 Ford switched the heads and intake manifold (as well as cams) on the 4.6L motors in the Mustangs...

By putting these on the 96-98 4.6L motors you up your compression and get much better airflow up top, which equals more hp.
