Okay, not trying to be a smart ***, but seriously, should the hp gains from any performance parts manufacturer be met with skepticism or simply be doubted outright? These heads flow well. Check out the performance gain in this article.

If I knew what he was going to tell me, I would be a psychic and wouldnt bother asking the question in the first place. My question was directed at those who had actually purchased and installed patriot heads.

What do you think he's gonna tell you. He's running a business.

Now the issue with Patriot heads has been the valves and valve guides being improperly installed. Many people have had issues and Patriot has always taken care of the issues but not the expense or time of having to replace the heads etc...Gunnar is a nice guy but is it worth taking a chance on a company with a reputation for poor work or spending more money for a company with a great reputation like VT Engines/ Modular Powerhouse/ Fox Lake/ Steen Racing etc...in the end its your money and your choice.

Patriot is a paying advertiser for that mag do you think they would post anything other then positive info...look at what the mag tests for the PP intake said..25hp gain NA...now we all know that is BS after many bought and tested it. Don't always believe what you read in magazines...
