Would it be safe to say (if you will) 1 hp is equivalant to 1 CFM?

So if your head flow's 300CFM at 600 lift then you get an extra 300HP. I don't think so! If so I would hog the hell out of a set of head's and call it a day!

If the 1 HP per CFM is as he is referring to, it would mean say 300 CFM heads would do say 60 hp over a set of heads that flow 240 CFM. Your post says that 300 cfm will do "extra" 300 hp. Doesnt make sense?
