CFM- I spoke with my mother on the phone last night. She says that it wouldn't be a problem to drive my car down to you guys if you guys are still interested on getting a SVT to test.

We are going to build a NA car to be able to provide reliable dyno numbers for our customers. It will be a month or two before the car is ready.

They do have mustang heads

I meant 4.6L not 5.0L. The PI heads are production pieces.

Jason, give me a week or so to get some things taken care off and I will get back to you. I'm really interested in working with you.

**ArmyFocus** · 06-03-2006, 01:36 AM

^^No problem.

Edit: One issue, my clutch slave cylinder is shot, fluid is leaking. I've hassled my dad to get it fixed for me, but he has yet to do it. Would it be possible for me to buy my clutch and fw and let you guys install it for me, with a labor charge of course? (I have a Quaife too that needs installing)

I'll be leaving around the first of september and returning on the first of january. My goal is a more powerful N/A setup. Trying to get past a 200hp mark so some serious head work is a must and I've been impressed with every other product I've purchased from you.

Note to self: Do not give specific dates on deployment and redeployment dates.

He's a moron, I already know what aef he is on and where he is going. We tried telling him before but he dont get it.

**CFM Focus** · 06-05-2006, 12:53 PM

Ok guys, please PM or start your own thread from here. Thanks!

Question on the stage 2.

Did you just clean up the bowls nice and neat and give it a 3 angle valve job, do some unshrouding, pop in larger valves or did you do a softball type port job enlargment with all the above listed.

I'm always terrified to buy a head thats been way over ported to impress with big flow numbers but not have the power usable till 6500 rpm.

Dyno would help.
Oh yeah and :cough: svt head :cough:

No softball type port job here! Compare low lift numbers to FR head and you will notice that our head outflows it. When you "hog" out a cylinder head without knowing what you're doing you will notice that higher lift numbers go up but low lift numbers go down. We were able to accomplish better low AND high lift flow numbers which is exactly what you want.

Valid points, but still, if you are leaving in say January, then say "I'm leaving in January". That is perfectly aceptable. Saying "the first of January" or whenever it is you are leaving, is not. I slip up sometimes too, so don't sweat it, just keep it in mind.

We're working on that.

Will there be a core charge on these, were we have to send our stock head back too you?

We are planning on offering different stages to meet different needs.

UPDATED 3/28/06:

This is with stock valves against FRPP head with larger valves!

UPDATE: Below are the flow numbers for what will be our new Stage II with larger valves.

Intake
86
162
203
218
224

Exhaust
94
173
200
209
213

I'm looking at the exhaust numbers for the NEW Stg ll w/larger valves(very nice BTW) but the intake numbers seem low compared to the original Stg ll w/stock size valves. Could I get a head with the OLD Stg ll intake and NEW Stg ll exhaust? Am I missing something here? Thanks. Tim

**CFM Focus** · 06-12-2006, 11:18 AM

That happened because a lot more work was required to get the intake to flow those numbers with stock valves. With the larger valves it did not require as much work which allowed us to lower the price some. What you're describing is pretty much going to be our Stage III and will cost a little more.
