Patriot Freedom Heads
Just noticed the 185cc Aluminum Freedom heads are only $815. They any good for a mild 355? Centerbolt compatible?

Re: Patriot Freedom Heads
I've always felt that if you are willing to spend $815 on heads you might as well save up $200-300 more and buy better ones. As far as I'm concerned $815 is not worth buying heads that are made using questionable material and hit-or-miss casting...
...I agree completely. WAY too many quality issues.

Re: Patriot Freedom Heads
Ditto here on that. I've seen posts where people run the patriots, but they've always had them ported/polished before installing them. I have seen some good numbers posted by people who do use them though. Still, for another $400 you can get a great set of AFR heads.
