I bet the flow at low RPMS is very important to these guys as you still need to drive the thing with some low rpm response. I bet you could grind the living crap out of a set of heads and get 300cfm from LT1's. Doesnt mean squat till they are on a car and driven to a dyno for HP check, and the track, and street.
My new heads are finally comming together and if you look @ .600 flow numbers, they are not really better than what your taking about here.

However............... they flow 260+ cfm @ only .400. It's the whole package that counts, not just peak flow numbers as you can set up a set of heads to flow well on the top end sacrificing the low lift numbers.
