The other reason I think its possible is because pre-FI, it was pretty commonplace to switch it up so you could get high speed one day and the FE the next(The test car was a dodge charger).

The only problem that car ran into was the valves got toasted, but since then valves have gotten alot better in performance. Valves on that engine would go periodically anyway whereas I have yet to have one go belly up over 180-250K miles. So if I have to swap a whole set out from the get go and its worth it(previous owner had not replaced them from 100K-180K before that I have no data or knowledge how the car was taken care of.)
