I ran my Patriot gold duals on my 231/237 for 4,500 miles. I took them off when I was swapping cams again and took them back to Patriot for Terry to test on his spring tester. After 4,500 hard miles they still fell into NEW specs. When I change over to a .6xx lift cam, I'll trust them with it too.

The golds are electro polished and stress relieved. I'd rather run them than the cranes. I'll also have them on my .650" lift camshaft.
