Brian got these figures, I'll post his findings in comparison to panchitos, which need to have corrected bowls or they choke. CFM ratings for panchitos I got off the head chart floating around the forum.

Brother’s round port.
263.1 ft/sec velocity
66.6cc port volume
CFM @ .5 lift 164.2


Panchito w/ blended bowls
271.0 ft/sec velocity
64cc port volume
Cnc chamber CFM @ .5 lift 167
As cast @ .5 155


thank you ! did you also use their service to cc the heads ?

decided based on the feedback here to go with the 94s and picked thsm up sunday Very Happy

I needed 60cc on the chamber volume. I can't remember if I emailed and asked what they were or if I needed to pay for additional work. I'd grab the port matched manifolds too.

thank you for the head recommendations, will talk to them and see what my options are

Brothers website says 1 week on most of their heads, I don't know if it's true or not. I spoke with Greg Tims yesterday & he told me 8-10 weeks on mine. Hope this helps.
