Default Air flow technolgy

I have a 410 Cubic inch stroker with a 242/246 612/618 114LSA
My heads are from Air flow technolgy in Ft. Laturdale Fl.
They are LS1 heads and flow 304 @550 and 314 @600 (I am pretty sure dont have flow sheets in front of me) This is not through any intake just flowed the heads by themselves.

2 question's here.
1. has anyone ever heard of / used air flow technolgy heads, and if so did you like or dislike them?

2. How will these heads perform on a 410? Will they beable to give the motor even close to what it needs to produce great results? I am looking for 525 RWHP and I am starting to think these heads wont get me there.

The motor is complete, but not installed.
Thanks

Depending on your cam choice you may be able to get there. 324 @ .600 lift tells me that a huge cam will like these heads. Alot of vendors heads do not flow that well and they are able to put down decent results. With those cubes and a nice cam it is def. possible. good luck to ya

You are the funny guy (a good friend that knows I have sold and bought many things off ebay)
I made a mistake and typed 324 when I ment 314.
They flowed 314@600.

J/K = Just kidding! Of course everyone has heard of these heads they are one of the best!

Don't know if it is true or not but "they say":
Airflow Research pioneered the tooling and machinery necessary for true 5-axis CNC port machining, which allows total flow consistency from head to head once the optimal port design has been established. No other manufacturer incorporates this complete machining technology into their heads

Airflow Technology? Never heard of them. I've heard of Airflow Research (AFR). But either way, 314 at @ 600 isn't bad at all. Most sponsers here have made better numbers on larger bore motors but that ain't bad either way. Did you have these flowed, or is this the sheet they sent with the heads? I'd have them tested independently seeing as how they don't have much of a reputation on this board.

Good Luck,

Good idea, I will probally have them retested.

Thanks
