Can't wait to slap these on and see what they do with a blower at 7500 and about 12 pounds of boost!

No, the cyl head install didn't lose any low or midrange hp.
Yes, the valve springs are stock. We test the open/closed pressure on all springs before re-installing them.
We do have some 5.0L cam results but we are in the process of testing multiple grinds before we release the hp numbers. We basically tested the only/1st set of cams we had, which were "blower" grinds slated for my car, and we tested them on a ported head N/A engine. Not an optimum scenario, but we did see some huge gains, only in the higher rpm range, but nothing in the low to mid range to speak of.
If we don't get our N/A cams in soon I'll post up what we have and go from there. I'm itching to release the results myself.
Ok, well I guess I will just have to do a little more research.
On these ported heads, im assuming you guys have done some before and after flow bench testing. At any point did they become noisy or turbulent? Did you happen to take any airspeed readings?
you know, with the short turn being so good, i bet velocity is high and choke is minimal. only ~45 degrees to turn into the cylinder is hard to beat. kinda like 3V but with killer flow. when the shops start using bigger valves and aggressively port them, you guys with really big power are going to need to rev them to the moon. even all of the extra airflow wont be very usable till 7500+ IMO. i really wish ford had used forged pistons and rods i could be comfortable with at 8k. because i would take it there. as it is 7500 will be my limit.
i fucking love this.Coyote Recipe=4.10's/4.30's+Longtubes w/full exhaust + tune + CAI + cnc heads + cams + Boss intake=apprx 475-500rwhp and a Helluva lot of fun!!!
"What happened with the torque?"
It made more, just kidding George. I will have to pull up the sheets when we get in sometime tomorrow after the snow. The ported heads didn't make any sizeable #'s down low or in the mid range, so if anyone is looking for neck snapping parking lot manuevers don't expect them with the ported heads.
The price of the cyl heads exchanged is $1495 plus freight, fully assembled ready to go.
What I can't wait to see is before and after ET's. That's all that really matters anyway. Hey Matt D, is your car stick or auto? 11.11, that's awesome!

That's what I'm wondering as well since this will mainly be of use to those folks running the 1320.
My car is a stick car , stock 3650 tremec. Still on the stock clutch too
