patriot stage 2 head
Saturday, September 08, 2007 9:12 PM
Would the patriot stage 2 head with cams get me to the lower 14's. I also have a header, lower motor mount, and catback exhaust. I plan on getting an intake here soon but if a head would get me to the lower 14's then i'd be saving for that.

Does anyone know what the cavalier ls sport 03 ecotec run stock 1/4 mile? I wanted to hit 13's or 14's.. is that reachable with a head and bolt ons?

Does anyone know if i'd need to do computer modifications if i got the patriot stage 2 head w/ cams?

Finally, if i bought the stage 2 head assembled with cams would there be anything else i needed to purchase? I'd need a new head gasket right? And would it be a good idea to purchase anything else while the head was being replaced, like head studs?

Any suggestions and idea's would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Was it REALLY necessary to make an entire new post about this head when you already have a post about it? Completely unneeded.

The info you want is readily available if you search. Look for the FEW N/A Ecotec guys in the low 14s and look what their mods are. You aren't getting there simply by swapping a head and cams. It's gonna take a LOT of bolt-ons and A LOT of tuning and skill. Do some research.

not being a dick or anything but do some more reading. trust me reading and some mechanical know how is your best friend. the mechanical know-how you can even pick up from reading! so open up the search box and away you go. for the quickest easiest safest way to thrust your car into the low 14s high 13s range would be to s/c it.

Just two years ago i had to think about how to make a 3 prong toggle switch work now i am boosting vehicles. its all in time my friend. and at the rate your going you will be a pro by the time your 20. I wish i had got an eco cav when i was 16...
