Default PP LS6 style heads

What are the limits of these heads compared to the actual LS6 heads or say a set of MTI heads? Is there a limit as far as displacement or psi from superchargers or turbos? Do you eventually require better heads for certain applications? Or do you just see more power from actual LS6 heads? I know you see some more but I'm talking significant difference.

The limit of these heads would be no diffrent than any other head. You can get diffrent valve sizes or diffrent stage porting for diffrent applications. The diffrences between these Patriots being 6.0 heads with the chambers welded would hardly be noticeable between a LS-6 head cause they carry the same runner design. You actually get better compression from the Patriots because of the smaller combustion chamber.All heads that are ported by any company are factory heads. 5.3 heads aren't going to be stronger than 6.0 heads and 6.0 heads aren't stronger than LS-6's.

The Patriot heads can be setup for just about any application. We can get you heads anywhere from stock shortblock friendly all the way up to big bore configurations!! What are you thinking about building
