Question Ported L92 Heads #'s?

Anyone have a flow chart for ported L92 heads yet? All I can get is rumors of peak flow #'s, but I was interested in the #'s for the entire lift range...

They start off with huge intake runners and end up with even "huger" intake runners.

I haven't seen any "impressive" numbers with them yet. You need lots of cubes and lots of cam to make them work well.

I wasn't planning on using them on an LS1, I just thought they would be a good bargain for a budget LS2 4xx buildup. So far I've seen several vendors offer ported versions, but they haven't been offering up any #'s on them. I would imagine the large volume runners would be acceptable on that.

This is the engine that made 640 flywheel horsepower a week or two ago. I'll try to post up the dyno figures for the engine dyno later today.

Here's the specs on the motor & car:

TSP 418cid L92 Stroker
4.080" Bore
4" Stroker
Precision Race Components 6.2l Heads
PRC Platinum Spring Kit
Texas Speed 251/259 Camshaft 110+3
ASP Underdrive Pulley
Stock 6.2l Intake w/ stock 6.2l injectors
1 3/4" Headers
Borla Catback
3.90 Gear 12 Bolt

The engine dyno tests were done with 1 7/8" headers. Unfortunately the customers car is running 1 3/4" headers, but the car still makes very good power. If memory serves me correctly the engine is just a little bit over 11:1. We dyno tested several different camshaft options on the dyno, but decided to leave this one in to see how she drives

Chassis Dyno Results:
those huge runners dont seem to have a problem producing kick *** low end torque, provided you don't have a huge *** cam like the above. this is the first build ive seen that can actually rev, though. Id rather go with the 242/250 cam they tested previously that made 630 on the engine dyno (gave up 10 hp) but made a ton more torque down low.

It seems to me l92's on a 400+ cube engines have a habit for putting down 550 to the wheels and im glad because that is what im putting together.

I've seen 480-530 rwhp 90% of the time. It all depends on the combo. These heads like big cams as shown in the above dyno graph.
