It will flow more air yes. Especially if you do the intake too. On a stock motor? This include valves and everything

Do a Pi swap. It's good for about 70 hp. I have all the necessary parts if you want em. Heads,Pi intake,tb and plenum and fuel rails. If your gonna pull the heads anyway to port em forget doing all that work and just bolt on my heads. I am camming a pair of windsors then swapping my heads for the cammed ones. I only have 80k on the originals and I was gonna keep em around but I will let you have it all if you want it. Everything is still on the car right now. I will be pulling it apart next weekend or sooner if the cams show up

The intake would help yes. But Everett has a good point and I'm sure it'd be a lot less with his parts. Massaging the heads and intake is $$

Totally cheaper. And with the added compression from the Pi heads you would have more power than a stock 99-04 4.6. And it costs 60 bucks per hp on these 4.6 2v motors so to get 70 for the 400 bucks I want for all this stuff its cheaper than boost for close to same gain. If I had to do all this over again I woulda just boosted my stock motor. All these bolt ons cost me as much as a blower but with far less gain. The nitrous is nice tho,til the bottle runs out.

Would getting thinner head gaskets an tightening my plugs give me better compression? Can you explain 60 bucks a hp
