Click on the image above for video of us test firing this engine on the stand

The flowchart below details huge gains achieved during our port work on this particular engine. We picked up a healthy 42.1 cfm on the exhaust side, and an all time record 60.5 cfm on the all important intake runners. These are truly huge gains that will result in a significant performance increase for your E Type!
