Default pi or svo heads

whats the difference between pi heads and svo heads performance wise. The svo heads were disigned for the npi motor so would my compression ratio still bump?? Would i be better off going with pi heads and intake or svo heads and intake. Price is not an issue either just wanna know what would be better. Its for my 96 GT. Thanks alot

If price does not matter get the SVO heads and ($$$) intake

Don't the SVO heads flow better than the PI heads? I thought the only reason most people didn't go the SVO swap was because of Price. If $ isn't a problem I'd do the SVO swap

Yes, they do, Infact the SVO's Are the best flowing 2v modular heads Ford has ever made.

They also have room to be ported. So if you can get a ported set of those and a ported SVO intake(bullitt style thing) and money isn't an issue than I would do that.

The intake is nutty expensive. The regular NPI sucks.

If money isnt the problem start off right and get any of the 4v heads with a matching intake.

the price is not an issue because a friend has both the svo heads and intake and an extra set of pi heads and intake and he will sell either one for the same price he also has an allen roots type blower with a bunch of pullies hed sell me for the svo heads. He took his svo heads off for stage 3 patriot performance heads ported even more and a custom turbo setup for his THUNDERBIRD lol
