Well there has been a marked improvement to the flow numbers.  There has been an 19% increase in CFM on the Intake and 21% on the Exhaust.  The following is a graph of the flow results.

The Exhaust to Intake ratio hovers around 60%, which is short of the 70% goal, but seems to be pretty standard for these heads.  Regardless their is a significant improvement.  I have added some pictures to the gallery of Jesse’s work.
