All are ported stock pieces. Unless someone knows of a new mfr.
I do know AFR is working on 'em.

You are right Jim Patriots are just ported stockers, and AFR is working on a Modular Head. I don't know the answer to the year question, you would have to ask a well informed Modular guy.

Good question. I think you need to ask if anyone has tried them. The magazine articles that test them show pretty good power numbers. But I don't trust everything I read unless I wrote it.

The first company to come out with a good flowing, affordable set of aftermarket aluminum heads is going to make some coin off of them for sure ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

I'll get this one. Last year at SEMA we talked with AFR and Trickflow, I quote, "they are not going to persue the 4.6 2 valve motor. They have things in development stages for the 3 valve, but nothing with the 2 valve."

okay bitch....GREAT advice on that one...i appreciate it..a lot of shit talkers like you tend to get banned from this site..looks like youre on your way! ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif) good luck! and BTW, when i do the PI swap.....youll see how quick my car will be...99-up GTs with gears, exhaust, and slicks get into low 13's. with a PI swap on my car with my mods and with some ET streets or somethin close to that youll see my ass in the 12s. so, dont talk shit unless you know what youre talkin about...

Patriot heads are not just ported stock heads. The have upgraded valves 1.84 / 1.45, .600 springs, Bronze guides, 5 angle valve job, ported to 17cc instead of 14cc (stock) and come with Patriot cams of your flavor. go to www.freewebs.com/raceerx and review my Engine built by HCI Motorsports in Sacramento 1-916-643-2280, they sell and install patriot heads and they manufacturer their own heads. they helped Patriot in early stages.
