Are the valve sizes the same between the 2 heads? If not, Its like comparing a 346 to a 370. You really cant.

That was kind of rude. Why are valve sizes so top-secret Terry?

David Coates has 2.055 / 1.60 on his Stage 2s
I have 2.080 / 1.60 on my Stage 3s

It's not a secret just a moot point. Every porter uses whatever valve size they feel is best. One doesn't don't need to have the same size valve to compare his heads to another set. That's as stupid as saying you can only compare heads that were done by the same head porter. What's the point then? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Here is my graph overlayed (via photoshop) on top of the one that was posted above.

MMS Stage 3 6.0L
MTI Stage 3 LS6
MTI Stage 2 LS6

Look how badass my exhaust ports are <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Mark from Andy's auto was there flowing my 6.0's when those MMS heads were tested. Numbers are true, of course my heads flowed better. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I could put a 2.180 valve in, and flow 8 million CFM. Does that matter? Not really. I was simply asking because It helps ME compare the 2.
