Head selection help

I would greatly appreciate any input you guys could give me on my choice on whether I should use these d2ve-a2a heads or not. It's not a race truck. It's simply a work truck. I want reliability bit decent power for towing and hauling. It's a 4x4 and I'm on a bit of a budget. If they will be the biggest mistake I ever made I'll buy new ones. But what's yalls opinion on their performance for my application? I don't know a ton about fords. I've only had Chevy and dodges. This is my first for build.

generally they are avoided like the plague, due to chamber design. Its not that they can't work though.
