Default 243 heads on a 6.0 how much will it flow ?

Given the right cam how much nitrous can these flow? I only want to spray a 400 shot at it. I had some people say I need different heads to go faster but I seen people with 799s and others flow the same shot. This is through a fogger of course. My goal is 8s. Right now cars best is 133 at 9.8 with a 1.25 60' on pump with a c16 stand alone

No need to go to different heads. Anyone who says so is stupid the car with the stock bottom end nitrous record right now runs mildly ported 799 heads.

They may not be the best heads out there, but they will do just fine too

It is not just about the heads by themselves, although they are part of the formula. It is about the whole volumetric efficiency and RPM package. You eventually get to a point on an N/A engine where no more fits in the cylinder. This is true of nitrous engines too. Once you get to a point, your performance per lb/hr of nitrous will start diminishing. To get it to make more power, you will have to increase the volumetric efficiency, engine RPM range or the displacement.
