Patriot Performance flow numbers
I got my TEA 1.5s today and they flowed
.500 281.6 257.9
.550 295.8 264.5
.600 305.9 267.8
didnt really say in the post...ive always heard the exhaust flowed better with a pipe so youd record higher #'s so im wondering why it was still just right on par for the exhaust side unless terry uses a pipe on the exhaust for his #'s as well?

My heads flow 227cfm on the exhaust and 298cfm on the intake at .600 with smaller than a 228cc intake port volume. (Older ARE heads but fairly recent port design)
(Current ARE heads are in the 320-330 range on the intake)
My heads were good for 124mph traps at 3500+ pounds and 11.1 ETs spinning through half of first gear on slicks. 10's@125 was only a slick change away. stock waterpump, no shortbelt etc.
My point is that you can make huge power with heads that only flow 285-295cfm.
