Patriot Performance Crate Engine?
Hey all,
I did my research on this forum and just about everywhere possible and there is NO information on the Patriot Performance Crate Engines.There was a thread started about these but nobody answerd the question.
Has anybody heard anything about these?
I'm not asking for your opinion on what crate engine to go with i'm asking if anybody has used/seen being used or heard stuff about Patriot Performance Crate Engines.
I spoke to their customer support and they did admit problems using the flat tappet cams due to people not breaking in the cam correctly.BUT they switched to roller and now use a dart SHP block.
They claim the engine sells well and haven't had issues.
DON'T STRAY OFF TOPIC!

I have heard no reports of them one way or another. I assume they are a recent entry into the crate engine market.
(Hope that didn't stray too off-topic for you.)
