The direct flow lid has a few smother corners than the other popular lids, and for this reason I would suggest it. I have a wisper lid and have had no problems with it, but if I was new to the market the direct flow is the one I would get.

now the direct flow lid that you guys are referring to, that's MTI, correct?

No it is not the MTI lid. Direct Flow is from LS1Motorsports.

Our local dyno claims to have been involved in testing the Diret Flo when it was first developed. They said Direct Flo was the best flowing by a small margin too.
