Patriot Stage 2 5.3l heads and 231/237 heads/cam swap soon Doing this soon maybe anyone can chime in on what gains they have experienced, i am hoping for 400 whp, i put down 337.
They are patriot stage 2 5.3L heads with a comp cams 231/237.
i am doing upgraded oil pump, double roller timing chain, and pushrods, the heads come with .650 lift patriot springs.
all i need is the gasket kits and install with a tune and im flying hopefully!

Mine have served me well since 2003 with no problems. Do your homework and optimize SCR, DCR and quench. Building a good motor is all about combo matching.

i made 420rwhp and 385 rwtq with that combo and did 445rwhp on a dynojet. I did that on a ls6 intake and t/b and just added a fast 90/90. I cant wait to get it retuned. I might just throw in the ms4 for fun. Did u already buy the cam, if not mine will be for sale shortly??
