Does anyone know if a modified 5.9 liter engine is available, with 4 valves per cylinder? Just curious.

Don't think so, because you would have to completely rework the valve train "as in overhead cams or different cam/rocker setup in the current block which ultimately probably wouldn't work out"... There are alluminum heads available for somewhat more performance, then of course all your other mod possibilities...

I didn't think so. There probably is somewhere, but it would be a complete custom build. It would be great if there was one because of the extra power you can tap into using more valves per cylinder.

Seems like I saw A-engine 4-valve heads by Batten a few years ago, but it may have been someone else, and I haven't been able to run anything down on the web so far.
