Hang on, you said, and I quote "im having problems with the patriot heads," but its leaking oil out of the crank/main seal? How is that the heads fault?
Yes, you need a tune.

Yes, you need a tune.
the only problem im having with the heads is how it runs but i want to fix the oil problem first to make sure it can handle the 88 mile drive 1 way to the dyno shop and handle the dyno itself haha
i cant wait to see what its like after the tune.....did you get yours tuned right away??

RE: Top End Engine Kit
best way you can get power if go for the SVO heads and intake, they bolt right up to our 96-98 stangs. then i don't know much bout cams but just get a stage 3 cam or something, CAI, big throttle body+plenum. that's a good top end kit i would believe. but will cost money as said.

You aren't the first to have trouble with Patriot. They would never get my money. Foxlake/Steen/VT/Boss330 would be the ones I talk to. You just don't have issues with them people.
