That makes sense. He drives a mustang. Increased air flow does not result in a loss in power. I'm not sure where he took physics or learned about motors. Now as for how much you will gain, that's another question. The stock cam can only utilize so much flow. And yes, it is possible to just bolt on milled heads.

Don't listen to that guy and I would check PTV Clearance just to make sure.
