It is not very often that I will admit I am wrong on things but I am on this one.
When I made the post about being lucky if the head flowed 420 cfm at .700 lift I looked at some of my info again I saw my info was for the 320 cc port volume head.
SVRE post about getting 440-460 is very possible with extreme head prep.
Looking back at my info I see that we did some 360 heads with a 2.30/1.88 valves that received a very good bowl, along with work around the valve guide, some work in the roof, race valve job and where rolled over about 1.5 degree's.Port volume was 365 cc's.
These heads flowed an averege of 424 CFM @ 28 H20.
Again I am sorry.My mistake.
