Patriot LQ9 vs. TFS 235 with FI?
I did a search and couldnt find the answers or opinions about this topic.
I am putting an A&A supercharger on my new forged 402 (after engine break in of course) and need to know the pros, cons, and general FYI about these two head options?
I do realize that the TFS is a 235 with 72cc and the LQ9 is a 227 with a 72cc. I also am fairly sure that the TFS will make more power through the range BUT truthfully if I make 650whp it is just as good as 700whp. I will have issues holding 650 on the street I am sure.................soooooooo what is your opinion or experience about these heads vs. one another?
Thanks

To answer some PM's
Yes i did start to push a lil water each pass making that kind of power.... Patriot heads, 12 point heads studs and 6.0L MLS gaskets.
Im sure if we O-ringed the heads and block and ran a copper gasket it could take a lil more...... if people are really serious about HP there is no comparing 4 bolt to 6 bolt setups.... there the only way to go for high HP.

I plan on using the PP stage 3 heads with my build..I think the TFS would only be a nice advantage if your pushing 800RWHP which is very hard to maintain on the street. I'm shooting for 650-700rwhp as well
