     At Atwood Performance, all sets of heads leave with a flow test sheet. As can be seen in the picture, flow testing is done on a SuperFlow SF600 professional model flowbench. The cylinder heads are flowed through an actual Harley Davidson cylinder to simulate the way the head will flow while actually bolted onto the bike. All tests are performed at the industry standard of 28" water depression for accurate comparrison to others. Intake tested with 3/4" radius inlet. Exhaust tested with 1 3/4" X 6" exhaust pipe.

     Atwood performance takes great pride in being extremely accurate with flow test results and encourages private testing for verification.
