I'm pretty sure the C5Rs flow over 300 cfm out of the box, but its going to be hard to find some actual "stock" flow numbers since these heads are sold bare and don't have any valves or valve seats in them.

You might contact Katech to see if they have that info since they use stock C5R heads on their C5R vettes.

I would have to agree with Nine Ball, those heads are awesome if you got the $$$$$$$$ <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
LS6 heads still $$$$$ but there are people that could afford it atleast! Nine Ball, didn't you pay like almost $5k for yours?? <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" />
