5.4 heads

Anybody replace their original heads with aftermarket ones ? If so how was the power and gas mileage ? Which ones are recommended ?

I want to do put on ported heads. From my research from a few years ago, all of the commercial heads are Ford Castings. The different shops take the OE castings and work them over to give you bigger valves, p&p, and any other options. At the time, I was set on VT p&p heads and I think .500" comp cams, but like I said this research is 3-4 years old.
