turns of thread

What year did Ford put more turns of thread in the 5.4L 2V heads? I'm looking at a used 01 Supercrew with 80k on it, and I'm wondering about the threads issue.
Thanks
Rich

My 01 has 74K on it with no problems. The heads didn't get more threads until sometime during the 2003 model.
I wouldn't be scared of it.
