Lightbulb 32,24,or 16 valve

Since the day i got my lightning i've wanted to put 32 valve heads on my truck. I,ve been told that the hold up is tthat nobody builds an intake and intercooler for them. It looks like to me that it would be very beneficial to use these heads due to the extra flow capabilities of these heads in conection with our supercharged engines. I also thought that the 2000 Cobra R's used 32v heads. If so why can't that be used as a patern. Also if no one has plans to build an intake for these heads will we be able to get one for the new 24 valve heads since they will be used on the new lightning. through ford or another dealer. Is my persuit worth the trouble, or are aftermarket 16valve heads better than any. Which i find hard to believe.

i remember someone puttin navigator heads on a L motor,but dont think thats twice as many valves will give u twice as much air, the valves in our heads are big and 4 valves per cylinder heads are smaller, u will see a gain but not as a big gain u might think
