Ford did once ofer a magnesium head.
By Dave Shoe - 10/26/2002 5:13:38 PM; IP 67.4.133.74
It was not for the FE, it was for an air-cooled engine back in the flathead days. I reviewed several blueprints of it at the Edsel Ford Research Center in Dearborn.

I can't imagine how a magnesium head would work. To be sure, you wouldn't want to overheat the sucker.

Also, I believe aluminum is considerably stronger than magnesium, but I'm not certain of this.
