[quote=“LMSRick”"] The flow gains are almost unbelievable, but as most people know, numbers aren’t everything. We need to get the port finished, then digitize and CNC it and try it on a car to make sure drivability doesn’t suffer.

I have a few customers who have the new F150 with the twin turbo ecoboost and they can tow 11,000 lbs. +/- with an oil cooler. That is pretty insane for a 1/2 ton truck. I have customers struggling to get that out of their 3/4 ton trucks… ---
