You might want to look into the new PRC Dart heads. Check this section and the thread should be on the first page.

i like my patriot heads. I have the stage 3 LS6 style heads on my new 370. I havent gotten it dynoed yet, but it seemed to have good power on the stock tune.

Mike2000Z28

I already have the TC and i'm going to do the install, I just didn't know what you guys where running with the A4, 3.73s, and a 3500 stall.

It is a DD. Not really necessary.

Niether are 3500 stalls or 3.73s.

I know of several people that have the LS1 Stage II 5.3 Heads with 98 and 99 C5 (A4) that are running 2;73 and no TC and are hauling azz. I was told by charlie at A&A that you do not necessarily need one with mild cams in the 220 range. That may be the difference though!

I ran Patriot Stage II LS6 heads, F13 cam, 3500 stall, & 3.73's. It was a nice combo, ran real strong. Never got to get it to the track but it pulled like mad. I would highly suggest this setup.

Mike2000Z28

Gunnar what about a price with that setup and a mild DD cam shipped? I'm at the point were I want to get the most out of it but still make it to work and back everyday. I'm lookin at all of my opinions and the budget. I still have to get the torque converter in and the car tuned after I spend the loot on the heads/cam and install, I know there will be hidden costs in that.

What kind of power with the stock bottom end, pacesetter headers, and stock intake?

What is the difference in these heads and the Patriot performance stage 2 ls6 heads?

Mike2000Z28

Gunnar will that price be good when I get my refund check in two to three weeks. I'm pretty sure I like what I see...

This is an extremely retarded question, but I am extremely retarded so it'a okay.

I always see people mention 5.3 heads and don't know what they are talking about. Are they larger and therefore reducing your volume giving you 0.4 less liters? I know I am probably way wrong but that is always what I picture when people mention 5.3 heads.
