These are the same guys that make a thread if a C6 owner doesnt wave or someone says the C4 is outdated. The average age on that forum is 43. I cant leave because of the handfull of knowledgeable people who seem to always help me with info everytime I need it.

well... i can see all points but to be honest... advertisement and real time can be two different things... we have seen it in alot of products... so only independent testing will show... it was a very good thread even with the arguing... but look at the fact that the 195 LT head will now out flow the afr205 LS head.... or about the same... that is kick ***... at least i think i got that info right...

Well if they don't like it don't buy it. It's that simple. Though I think they should get 2 motor setups that are the same. One with the Old heads, and the other with the new heads to see what they do side by side, and them run the cars on the track.

I'd consider being a test mule for a back to back run if they gave me the heads for free. I doubt they would do this though. I have a max effort 12:1 383 solid roller 25x/26x, over .650 lift with the older AFR 220's, competition ported. With an LT4 intake, mine made 480rwhp. I'll have new dyno numbers in a week or two with SuperVic and shaftmount rockers with these same heads. I have to admit, I don't think I would pick up more than maybe 10-15rwhp with the new heads. All testing and dyno numbers as well as head flow numbers on mine were performed at Thunder Racing.
