Unit-I am not saying that his combo can't make good power, just not 300+ rwhp. It took me for ever to get my highest rwhp(switching cams,computers,MAF,pullies)My heads were also blended, and had a VJ, so no I don't see him making that power. I have the facts on a set of Fully ported E7 heads by HP I think that flowed a max of 212 cfm @550. That isn't near enough to get 300+ rwhp. MM&FF also did a dyno on the Stage 2 combo from Excessive(Stage 2 Holley Heads, .540 cam, and Stage 2 Cobra Intake with a 75 mm MAF, and a 65 mm TB)Not saying that MM&FF is the bible, but they know a little about what they are doing. They maxed at 360 bhp, when broken down to rwhp at roughly 17% loss would be about 300 rwhp, and there is no way IMHO a set of fully ported E7's, and a GT-40 Intake with a .512" cam can make that hp. The heads wouldn't ever see the peak flow, and the porting would only lower the lower flow numbers.

I am not trying to start anything, I have just been through more than my fair share of mixing and matching combos, and have been in his shoes before.
