What's it gonna be?

So what are you doing with the original engine then?
I hope you have done your research on what you have bought. Patriot heads are not the best of heads in the world for mod motors. I am not trying to scare you, but I do hope that if MMR (assuming it's from them) will back you up by warranty.

Awesome setup man. I kinda agree with Jody on the heads. Maybe you could sell them and put the money towards a set from MPH or VT?

Me and my buddy are gonna swap engines so my old engine is going on his 04 GT. He's getting rid of the car and didn't wanna loose all the money (around $10k) he spent building it. He's got mad knowledge on Mustangs so I trust him plus I live at his house. LOL. The engine has less than 2k miles on it. Not bad for the $2k I paid for it |

It's LOUD but YOU looked!

Jody is right, Patriot heads tend to drop valves crack internally from combustion chamber to chamber and leak a lot....
just make sure you do proper break in and keep a CLOSE eye on things. congrats though, should be a hell of a ride! bring it out to biffs when installed.
