How much do Patriot Stage II heads go for?

Our stage II heads assembled w/o cams are $1,295.00 no exchange. These will come with 1.78"/1.45" stainless valves, choice of bronze or steel guides, .600" lift springs, ti retainers, and viton rubber seals.

What are the advantages/disadvantages of bronze or steel guides?

What head gaskets are folks using? I'm going to have a set built for my buddies 2000 HD since we're turning up the boost and doing some head work.

Has anyone removed the heads themselves? Ford of course says to take the cab off but that's not realistic for those without a hoist! Any feedback would be appreciated! Mike

What are the advantages/disadvantages of bronze or steel guides?

The bronze guides will dispearse the heat better than a steel guide. Also the bronze guide has a natural lubricity to it that the steel does not. We offer both because some customer prefer the steel guide over the bronze.

silversvt02 sorry to change the subject but you have to post another picture with just the front of your truck. I have a silver L and want to do the billet grille with the svt logo on it like yours.

Patriot Stage II heads and LFP stage 2.5 cams.
577rwhp at 15lbs of boost. :rockon:

Thanks for the info. Which one is outright better? Could you please explain more. I just learned Monday that the PI heads come with steel guides and would like more input as to the advantages/disadvantages of bronze vs. steel. Thanks.

If all goes well I'll be using Fox Lake Stage II's with some kind of cam???????

I don't know about the cam yet.
