Alright, I was looking at lmperformance.com and ran across a Patriot stage II head w/ cams for $1495.00. My question is, is this head any good?? Here's the specs they have listed by the way :

Patriot Gold Springs
Patriot +1mm Valves
Bronze Guides

Are those specs decent, or should I rebuild my stock valvetrain?? Thanks in advance for the help.

I wish someone would reply
It's just now cutting it's teeth.
I bought this and installed it, but I cant get my car to start right now. I know njs honda killa has this head, but i dont know what he said about it. Once i get this damn thing to start, i'll tell you how it is. I got the one w/o cams though.
adam (nj honda killer)
has them installed and is dyno tuning this weekend ask him
its well worth it if your doing mods that require the added flow. adam needed it.
BTW: i sold adam his for a MUCH lower price than that. let me know if you really want one.

Hypsy, I'm interested. What sorta price?
I'll be interested in a few months. Right now I'm just getting everything planned and hope fully within a year I will have all my mods complete. If I see that those that have this head show good gains I will definitely be purchasing one.

If you guys read Chevy High Performance they did a article last month on a cavalier that there working on called "LIL EVIL". The next issue that comes out they are supposed to be installing a patriot head on it. SO i imagine they will also dyno it to see the results. Last month the put a full header back exhaust, cold air intake, and a 75 shot and got pretty impressive results
If your interested in custom aluminum tilt wheel levers hit me up!
