Need suggestions on aftermarket heads

1StockGT · December 30th, 2006, 03:09 PM

I've been thinking about getting heads and cams, then later on down the line put on a supercharger. The heads I've been looking at are the Patriot stage II heads and Comp Cams Xtreme Energy cams. Does anybody have any experiences with any of these parts, or does anybody have any other suggestions. I'm looking for what works well and will last since right now I drive my car everyday. Any suggestions will be helpful.

comp cams are a good choice, i don't like patriat performance heads too much, they were the first out on the market pretty much but not the best. VT engines makes good heads and cams and so does modularpowerhouse

I've heard some bad things about Patriots like droppin' valves into the pistons. It may have been an isolated issue but it wasn't a chance I wanted to take. Don't know if they've fixed'em or not but I went with the Foxlake Stage II heads and Comp Cams.

That has nothing to do with the head itself, but who installed the valves or the key materials. Actually the stock PI head is an excellent head, I would just port and polish the stock PI head.
