Default Patriot Stage 3 Heads

Looking to buy a set of heads, and found these in the classifieds section https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...=1#post8297788 Was wondering if these would be a good upgrade over my stock 1998 ls1 heads. I ordered a shitload of parts lately so these heads would be ran with ls6 intake, ported and polished stock TB, ceramic pacecetter headers, comp roller rockers, full 3" hooker exhaust, LID, Smooth bellows. Thanks in advance

Yup....Your gonna have to mill them, run thin headgaskets or both. Otherwise you stand to loose about 3/4 point in compression or more.
