The bad things that have been spread about Patriot heads are all old problems. I spoke with patriotperformance about their heads and they said all the QA issues have been fixed. I bought some stage 2's but havn't installed them yet. I will post results after the install.

One of my buddies went through 3 sets of heads from Patriot...The first set consumed about 1 qt of oil a day (oil gathered in the heads)....the next set was warped enough to almost slide your finger between the head and the block..... Surprisingly the 3rd set worked for him so it seems like they're hit or miss.

and they're a PITA to work with .....

No offence but what are they going to say, no we still built crappy heads.

Imo stay with the companies that have a good reputation and you are going to get good service and product more often than not.

I would go with www.modularpowerhouse.com, they ceratainly arent the cheapest but they make the most power from what I read.
