I'm planning out what parts I'm going to buy for myengine build in March. I'm shooting for a 2V 300 RWHP N/A engine. For the heads, I was thinking about using Patriot Heads. Anyone have experiance? VT Heads are $800 more expensive. I've read that the Stage 3 Heads are crap. Is that true? Should I stick with Stage 2's? Are the gains better with Patriot Stage 2 or 3 Heads than with stock P&P PI with a set of VT Stage 2 N/A cams?

 

Ive heard nothing but good things about the Patriot stage 2 heads- no personal experience though....yet.

 

Anyone have any horsepower numbers from either?

 

Fox Lake heads are supposed to be pretty good

 

300rwhp will be easy. I have Patriot Stage 3's, and comp 270's. making 320rwhp. If I had longtubes like you, instead of shorties,I would be over 330rwhp.

 

What other mods do you have?...
