Need custom intake or Daytona dash, as well as custom headers. Mike does sell headers for twin turbo on the 18 deg heads.

Definitely NOT a plug n play operation.

So the only option is the L35 thing ?
I think they wont flow more than 250 cfm ported and with big valves at 0.50 lift

get some lil brodies if you have KB headers. I am in the process of porting a set for a local customer. We ordered the heads from Brodix and got them less then 1 week later. if you have ATr or stock headers, the heads will have to be special order with straight plugs. the intake lines right up b/c they are not raised runner

Well the -8 heads are a direct bolt on if you have KB headers. if you dont have his headers then you need to either 1) order them with straight plugs from Brodix, or 2) modify some of the primaries of your headers.

As for flow numbers, there is alot more potential then the vortecs. IMHO the brodix is a much better head. A good race port job will net 300cfm on the intake with a -8 head. Street strip should be in the low 290s, high 280s.

The raised runner heads are the -10s and they can flow in the 320s...

My 18 deg heads flow in the mid 350s at .600 on the flow bench we call the "heartbraker", b/c everyone thinks their heads flow good until they are strapped down to this bench.
