We just finished up a set of ported heads with stock valves and got a peak of 318 cfm, a gain of about 100 cfm. This is just a teaser. I will post pics tomorrow and the flow results later tonight.

Here are the flow numbers:
Stock:
.100" I:88.7 E:65.7
.200" I:167.5 E:118.6
.300" I:218.2 E:159.4
.400" I:217.8 E:177.6
.500" I:224.8 E:184.3
Modified:
.100" I:101.1 E:71.6
.200" I:195.3 E:117.8
.300" I:256.9 E:164.0
.400" I:296.0 E:192.3
.500" I:318.9 E:199.1
Gains:
.100" I:12.4 E:5.9
.200" I:27.8 E:-.8
.300" I:38.7 E:4.6
.400" I:78.2 E:14.7
.500" I:94.1 E:14.8
We'll have some dyno numbers on a N/A car and in a few months we'll have some flow and dyno numbers on our 3.7L with these heads but larger valves. No SRT guys have stepped up yet....

Good stuff, someone needs to step up and send out some SRT heads. I wouldn't mind doing it..........but I'm afraid of the tuning needed and I have a InMotion tune(and don't want to buy another).
Did you guys just gasket match the intake runners? If not(and you went bigger) what did you do about the gaskets?

For the NA the intake port has not been fully enlarged for gasket matching, but it is port matched to our ported intake. Going larger has resulted in reduced velocity and loss of power on the 3.2L NA.

On the SRT we would further improve intake flow and drastically enlarge the exhaust side to balance out the pumping.

A larger exhaust valve may not be necessary at this point. Actually I know it isn't as we have a lot of meat left on the exhaust side to play around with.
Humm? Your not the first to port heads. If you only had 216 cfm to start you must have had a bad set of heads. Is it possible that some one just made a mistake with a few numbers. Any way 318 cfm is impressive if you realy started with only 216 and went to 318. However if you started with 270 ish cfm and went to 318 cfm for $1500.00 it's not impressive at all about $32/cfm.

Even though we know it will provide diminished performance because of inefficeincy? You are one sly business man...
Nothing on this damn car is under $1000......jeezus...I could get a brand new set of aluminum heads ported and polished for under $1500. Aftermarket parts for this car= slap in the face!!

That's why they make Camaros and Mustangs my friend.

I love my SRT6 and wouldnt give it up...but jeez why does everything cost over a grand and still nothing out here has bumped us over 400+hp yet??
$1000 for 5-10hp.....just farts is all I smell....sorry for my Rant!?!?! Everyone has them...just my turn this morn I guess.
