"who" has them...and what where your gains on blower cars? I've been reading a bunch of sites/thread and some people swear they didn't gain much at all.
Did anyone only change their heads then re dyno? I did too much at once to know what I gained and where.

There's only a few CFM difference between the 3's and 2's. What where your gains NA? I imagine it would be still about the same, maybe a little more w/ FI. Do you have standard bore? I was reading that it said not to use the 3's with standard bore. I was actually wondering if that wasn't really a worry.

Yeah, I just called Patriot and they told me the same .0020 over. But he actually said stage 2 and 3's gain (I'm quoting him exactly), "Ruffly 40 Hourse Powar at the reaar wheels". lol
Has anyone noticed these kinds of gains NA or FI?? My numbers are not adding up if they do.

Yeah, I know you've had a hard time. It's because of you, the heads went to the Machine shop first before going on the car.

Nope, they said they were perfect. They said the same thing everyone else used to say, that they were crap but they've cleaned up there act.
IDK, I think it's luck of the draw and who's feeling lazy that day. The only reason Foxlake doesn't have problems like that, is they aren't cranking out the volume of heads like Patriot. When numbers go up quality normally goes down.

I am very happy with my stage 3's. I really wish I would have just had my heads ported because my stock heads(going on my buddys car) now look amazing.
I have seen car with the same set up as me but with stock heads only making 500ish rwhp.
