Depends totally on the quality of the port work. I'd be worried about piston-to-valve clearance on heads shaved .060". The P head is a great low buck street head.

Well GT40p's flow 190 cfm out da box on top, average flow (over five points) is 149, your E7TE's probably flow an average of 130 to 135 cfm?

so what your saying is when i get the gt40 p's shaved 20thow and ported they will be way better then the heads i have on there now??? what u think the might flow the gt40p's after shaved and ported???

Shaving/milling the heads wil increase compression. It will also throw your intake alighnment off. You will need to check & most likely mill the intake to fit when you mill more then 30-40 thousands off.
As goes for what they will flow depends on who is doing them and on what flow bench. If you are spending that kind of $$ to port the heads then just go buy a set of AFR heads or Twisted Wedge and end all the b/s. Those heads only need work when you are trying to make ALOT of power. Those AFR/Twisted Wedge flow better out of the box, then those other heads fully ported by a expert porter.
