What Do LT1,LS1 & LT4 Heads Flow??
They are ALL over the board. LS1's will outflow LTxs no matter what.
A really good LT1 will do 270ish on the intake 260-265 is very good.
A really good LT4 will do 290 ish on the intake, 275-285 is usually seen.
LS1's are capable of 330+
And as always its hard to compare flow numbers because of the enormous amount of variables in benches.
Llyod Eliot does do good heads.

The best LT1 stuff will usually peak in the higher 27Xcfm range on the internet, and the same in real life. 99.9% of it peaks in the 25X range IRL
. Consider you can make up to around 500hp with a HR cam and 270cfm... and almost noone gets close to that.. so maybe something is up 
LT4 stuff.. most that I've gotten from other places peaks in the 260-280 range. If you're lucky 280-285. To sit and eek more out of it, you'll usually end up in the 29X with a 2.02 valve.
LS1 stuff isn't going to flow 330, more like around 300 with a 2.02 valve. The 6L truck stuff will get near that with a big valve but the regular ls1 stuff wont. Of course everyone claims that, but again.. the only one I've ever had get over 280cfm was a mandatory cnc head from Lingenfelter. It was huge, but it flowed well
.
If you're looking for cheap stuff b/c of a budget, expect 245-255 IRL from LT1 stuff, 255-270ish for LT4 stuff, and about the same for regular LS1 stuff. Based on the heads people have sent in from all over and I've tested myself anyway
