I just noticed Dart came out with a Platnium series of Iron Eagles. The 215's are supposed to outflow Pro Topline 220's and compareable heads. The pictures i've seen of them look like very nice castings with profiled guides like you see in 18 degree heads. The are supposed to flow in the 300cfm out of the box.
I was just wondering if Mike or anyone has had a chance to check these heads out yet?

Local head porting service says that there flow numbers are comming up short. That they can get better flow numbers out of regular ported iron eagles. Mike have you checked these heads out yet? Or anyone else.

I bought a set of 230cc Platinums in June. They were flowed by M2 Racing at 284cfm. After 3 sets and 4 months I finally got my heads. approx 340cfm on the intake. I need to call them to get the flow chart to post.

I need to call them to get the flow chart to post. = 340CFM out of a conventional 23 degree head  Who's bench was this & what were the conditions?? I have never seen anything even close to this on any honest bench with a conventional head & would consider them outstanding numbers on a raised runner one, & very good on an 18 deg of equivalent size. subhuman,, I waited forever for 2 sets of the 200cc Platinum heads. Looked real nice, flowed within a few CFM of the old heads. Made almost exactly the same power on the same engine  So far I am not overly impressed,, These were unported with a real good valve job on restricted engines. From memory mid 260's intake. have the numbers if you want them. |

Wolplace its good to see you on here again. I've been told the same thing from other shops that they do not match advertised flow number. The way I understand it the Platinum's based off wet flow technology so its potential is under rated. On a regular bench it wont show the numbers. The actual performance is in that which a regular dry flow bench does not show. What do you think? Check these flow numbers out ronsportingservice.com/products-dart.htm |

This I tend to leave to folks that do it for a living ;D I bolted the 200cc platinum heads onto a 400 restricted deal & gained zero but I can't say what they will do in an open engine compared to the older heads as I haven't used them. Could be they would make more power but it sure didn't show on he bench over the older ones. |
