Default Flowing heads...

I just had a quick question to all the sponsors that sell heads that do their own port work... How do you flow your heads with or with out the injectors in place???

We flow with a clay radius on the intake side and a pipe on the exhaust side. The injectors are in the intake and we generally flow without it.

It's kinda hard to flow with a injector in place without the intake.

Beast i realize that, the reason i asked is because you will get more CFM with out the injector in place. Ive seen some flow their heads that cover the whole intake port, thus getting more CFM than the head acutally flows. Just seems like they would make something that memics the injector being there while flowing the heads...

We flow our heads the same way most other head companies do, clay on the intake runners and a pipe on the exhaust runners.

i think you need to research how EVERYONE flows heads...

there are zero other parts there, other then the assembled head.
no intake
no injectors
nothing but the head, a lump of clay around the intake port and a short pipe on the exhaust port
