Deffinatlly. My 320 CFM TEA 2.5's only hit 296 on a SF600. It's not all in the bench racing though. The heads put up good power numbers on most cars, so who can complain?

Great #s. My TEA 1.5s flowed 306@.600 and 267@.600 on their bench. I ran times in sig the other night at 400 DA. So much for bench racing. Ill put my car up against most with higher dollar and higher dynoing #s any day. Lots of people will bash TEAs flow #s but you wont hear **** bout those E.Ts and MPHs. I wouldnt run any head unless TEA touches it.

Pretty strict about cages, you could run it once and then they will say something.

I have had the same awesome results from my TEA 1.5 as well and my heads flowed between 5 and 25 cfm less than the flow numbers in the top post.


Below is my best run to date and a link to that post. My race weight was around 3420lbs.

https://ls1tech.com/forums/drag-racing-results/412301-new-best-tea-heads-lg-cam.html


60 --- 1.49
1/8--- 6.913
MPH-- 98.10
¼ ----10.914
MPH--122.64

I just recieved my TEA LS6's and they flowed 4 cfm less with a 2.02 valve and 225cc port . My exhaust is slightly better because of a 1.57 valve . TEA is an awesome company to do business with . Unfortunately I have to get rid of these sweet heads . TEA's bench does read higher than others but their heads really do perform . I'll be starting a sale thread soon .

I normally run a couple 1/8 miles passes to get the car set right then make a 1/4 go to the booth get a warning and a slip and go home. Its worth it to me because it hooks so good.
