Default Patriot Performance Heads!

This past weekend with the wonderful help from Dheck, we swaped out my TEA heads for a set of PP LS6 Stg2's. I have been long debating on what I should do to replace them as some orf you know, and this is what I decided on. PP LS6 Style Stg2, 64cc chambers, 2.055/1.60 REV Valves. Here are the flow numbers:

.100 72.1 / 63.1
.200 148.9 / 119.9
.300 197.4 / 165.9
.400 246.4 / 202.9
.500 285.2 / 218.8
.550 298.3 / 223.9
.600 304.5 / 226.7

I am awaiting on a set of Kooks from Kris at Scoggin Dickey and then I will get her tuned. Right now I am running open headers and she seems to be just great. I haven't had a chance to take her past 3k yet to see if there is any noticable SOTP difference.

If anyone is interested in a set of heads, these really do seem to be top notch. Within 10 days of ordering them to MY specs, I received them exactly when I needed. Both Gunnar @ Patriot and Tom as Speed Inc. were a big help. Thanks again guys! If you need anything, get ahold of either, they are great to do business with and both are sponsors.

Black02SS what TEA heads did you have on there before you switched to the PP heads? Why did you decide to switch?

I was running Stg2 5.7's milled .030. I switched for a few reasons, one being I was pretty limited with those heads what cam I could run withouth PTV clearance.

You should have them flowed locally before instalation. Mine were over 30 cfm off when I got them. They looked awesome, but the numbers just weren't there. Maybe quality control is better now and yours should do fine.

I keep seing people talking about flowing their heads. I know what it means but don't have a clue as to how much this usually runs.

same can be said about my TEA/FFHP heads. why do you think my custom cam is so big

my mid lift numbers are pretty "decent" thouogh and port volumes are relatively "small".

i have the same set chad has and i'll be independently flowing those for informational purposes, they wont go on the car.

for just a single port ~40 bucks.

i had all 8 ports flowed w/ a radius plate, ls6 intake, and ls1 intake and pipe on the exhaust and fully spec'd and measured. cost a pretty penny but worth every cent.
