Default Flow numbers for stock 98 heads

Does anyone have any flow numbers for stock 97-98 LS1 heads. I bought a set of 98 CNC ported heads and was wondering what the gains in flow are. Hoping someone has some before and after numbers. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

stock are 222cfm, not sure how much your ported one's are but I would guess 280s for a stage 2 98 heads, maybe a bit optimistic.

I think it must be a stage 1 port job. The intake flowed 242 @ .500 lift with 28" H2O. The exhaust seemed quite good at 204. These numbers dont match the stage II PRC or the Patriot cnc ported 243 Z06 heads. This was a trade off for not having to buy new valve covers and coil mounts as these are perimter bolt. Thanks for the help.
