Patriots are the best bang for the buck. Not only that but their customer service is 2nd to none. I sent back 1 of my sets of Patriots 2 yrs after I took them off my car because of defective valve springs. I bought them from Terry when they first were available. He knew I had a stroker so he put extra effort into getting them to flow as much as he could. Two years later, Terry had long left the company and Gunner honored the warranty work. Not only did he replace the springs but he ran the latest CNC program on them, put brand new valves springs and seals on them. They were shipped back free of charge with a brand new set of head bolts and gaskets. You cant ask for better than that. They are the best bang for the buck out there.

Those are pretty nice power numbers for his mods. I have an identical Heads and cam setup except I have a ported tb, asp pulley, Corsa muffler and I am running cats. I lost almost 10rwhp and 10rwtq by adding the cats on stock heads. I bet they are holding me back more or the same now.

they've come a long way since then (and that's not for the good)...i don't know why any head company would replace a broken spring after 2 years...springs wear out ya know

I can not really complain about mine, I have had no problems and my car does not run bad at the track, no dyno numbers though.

You should re-read my post. I said 2 yrs AFTER I TOOK THEM OFF. Those heads were on the car with those springs for all of 3 weeks. I replaced the broken springs and ran them for 1/2 a season.
