Thanks Bill ! I was thinking 450-500 range that sounds like maybe over 100 cfm from what he has (330-340?) Very exciting times watching him improve and fly our flag !

WHY would the bore be smaller if he is planning on using the Solid Billet aluminum block with his name on the block (that was at Norwalk this year, maybe you missed it Bill!.

Flow numbers aren't everything with a boosted motor. Put a set of high flowing pro stock heads on a turbo motor and it would be a turd.

It will be fast, it's got no choice but to be fast when you stick two big ass air compressors on the end of it.

Actually the way I look at it flow numbers are more important on a boosted application, well turbo anyway. Not blower. Vs NA.

... Thanks John, I can always rely on your perspective ...
... BUT, it will be faster than the heads that my CV-1's replaced, so that's a win no matter what your perspective is ...
