Which I am very interested in. I know you can't give an exact date for release, but approximately?

Yes indeed. One x-ray tech, and one nurse in the same house should equal sucess and speed.

It's OK about the lying thing. I'm a surgeon by trade and I tell people that what I'm about to do to them doesn't hurt all that much. They just don't realize that what I'm saying is that it doesn't hurt ME at all.

chunt,
You're not dumb-I suffer from CRS syndrome so I'll ask Warhawk1 tomorrow and post it. I want to say +.150 over OEM but I CRS!
silicone boy, (as in hooter enhancement? you're my idol...)
You can engage Mr. & Mrs. 1CAMWNDR for staff and have your own ER show.
There are many talented people on these boards.

Yes, I add volume to the universe for a living. A man can have worse occupations. My budz called me "silicone boy" and the name stuck. Seems like in my work life and my hobby life that the rule is "there's no replacement for displacement"

I refuse. The vendors here make me drool and it's a sad thing to make a grown man/boy (that's what we all are, right?) drool. I promised that I wouldn't inflict such pain on a fellow hotrodder

This is the 220 runner, 64 cc chamber head. Heads will be available in volume after the initial orders are filled.
This very head was the final approval piece. It flowed 295 / 200 with 1” entry plate and without pipe, at 28”Hg, on our Superflow 1020, at .600 lift. The test bore size was 4.155”. We’re telling all the parameters in case you find another head mfg. that tested on a 76 degree day at 56 Ft above sea level when Jupiter was aligned with Pluto and has a Superflow 1020. Then the numbers will be a valid comparison.
The entire flow sheet will be posted on our site shortly. These numbers were generated with no back-cuts on valves and are as you will “open the box.”
We expect that the talented porters and professionals among you will see significant increases due to the generous material surrounding the ports, with not too much effort.
Think they'll flow as good as LS7 ported heads after they're ported?

Will GM LS7 heads work with the WarHawk blocks?
