New Patriot Heads

On a side note...most Professional Products stuff is made in china and people still buy it. I saw some of there quality 6 yrs ago and didn't like it. I havent bought a product of theirs since, however theres tons of people running their intakes and harmonic balancers and are very happy with them. I don't recommend their stuff to anyone where as lots of people here would. Guess what, I dont like the idea of offshore castings especially for something as critical as cylinder heads but on the other hand theres tons of short block engine kits that use chinese made crankshafts and they seem to work fine. So basically it comes down to if your a gambling man? You will probably be happy with the stuff, but theres a chance you may not. I spent $15 in the last casino I went to and called it quits, so you know where I stand.

When he first had it dyno tuned, not many people were surprised by what it made, they told us the SOHC motors blow, and also the patriot heads blow almost as bad to.

Last time I said something about how bad the 4.6 patriot heads flow compared to the new pushrod ones all I got on this forum is how great 4.6's are. How they can make the same power as 5.0's for the same price, etc,etc,etc.

Belive me I agree with you, and the 4.6 Patriot heads are like $1500 or more?? And they don't flow well. Compared to almost half that for the new 5.0 heads.

Since the new heads are all new not a port job on an existing head I am hoping that the will be a good flowing head, I hope they also can work out any problems ( If they have any) and have a good product for less money. Its a win win thing for us pushrod guys!!

thats good to know.... like i said that was he said she said kinda thing and i was just wondering if anyone else has ran into a problem like that.

what can you tell me about your heads that have atleast a 200cc intake runner. seco told me that you didnt make them.

As far as I know they only make one SBF head at the moment. It has 185cc intake runners.
