    Brad 5 Head Flow Figures

    Hank,
    These figures were taken by an independent at 28" flow, for your reference:
    .100" Int = 74.55 Exh = 50.31
    .200" Int = 141.84 127.34
    .300" Int = 237.80 223.87
    .400" Int = 326.52 293.97
    .500" Int = 402.29 329.82
    .600" Int = 449.83 347.02
    .700" Int = 472.99 352.76
    .800" Int = 480.66 358.50

    Untouched head porting, older set using 4.375" bore.
    They make so much power we don't know what to do yet.
    This is all you need to know.
    Good luck.

    flow

    a conventional suck through flow bench will produce different numbers than a blow through bench.

    So what's the answer then? (Apart from 'enough' of course.)
    Curious minds want to know....

    standard

    Assuming more and more people are getting/building these "blow through" benches,,,

    is a "standard" emerging for them, such as 28" became the standard for suck through air flow benches, is there one for blow through?

    Possibly it is 45 psi or ???

    This will be for a non-blown naturaly asperated application. I'm thinking that conventional suck through bench numbers will be what I'm needing.
    Thanks for the info.

    a/f model

    One of the A/F head models will probably be better suited for your purpose then. They have much smaller runners and better velocity. There is a guy trying to sell a set of BAE 6 A/F runner heads on the classifieds.
