GEAR M UP Posted September 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 The block is C5R, the C5R heads and intake would have cost me my marriage! Awwww, those velocity stacks would have looked great under my hood though.... I went with Patriot Stage III LS6 heads that are hand ported. The flow numbers looked really good. I just need to find the damn sheet and I'll post......... The machine shop misplace my head bolts/studs, but they found them today. Take a guess what retail on those bad boys are for the C5R block........ Over $1,000 for bolts and studs.........I'm glad they found them!

BenKey Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 Not too many good things being said about Patriot here lately. At least one sponsor has dropped their products from their line. I believe it was Texas Speed. Good luck with them. Adjustable rockers and CompR lifters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adjustable rockers and CompR lifters? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ben, I've read every thread on Patriot, and all I can say is when it comes down to it, you can only trust what you read from people that you know or have built relationships with. I have the flow sheets around here somewhere, and they are what they are. Flow numbers and part sets right up there with their competition. I went with the following: alum. roller 1.7 rockers (I think they are Comp) Comp 850-16 lifters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
