hell yeah we're interested

I haven't been able to find any independent flow bench results for their newer 220cc heads. Honestly for the price I would be happy with 300 @.600 lift and that runner size.

Are you looking for LS6 or 5.3L heads? Here's the flow numbers on both.

PRC 2.5 220cc 5.3L Heads

Int. Exh.
.200 147 111
.300 206 145
.400 254 185
.500 291 204
.600 312 223

PRC 2.5 LS6 Heads

Int. Exh.
.200 147 114
.300 209 152
.400 258 191
.500 294 207
.600 316 226

Go ahead and post the flow numbers you found from these heads. I would be interested to find out. Several companies purchase these heads including MTI and SDPC to name a couple. I have NEVER heard of anyone have problems with PRC heads flowing the same if not more than advertised. Our flow numbers are exactly what they say they are. Anyone is welcome to stop by and check out any head on the flowbench. We have customers do it all the time.

Agreed we've seen very consistant flow numbers out of our heads. You might even call Zach @ MTI. he flow tests every set of cylinder heads we send him & has had nothing but great things to say about them!

That sounds like BS to me. I have personally witnessed many sets of PRC heads flowing more than advertised.
