"My head flows more rats than your head"

A tid bit for interest, and one that relates to Paul's comment....

" The specified numbers are difficult to compare to any other flow tests due to an issue with the equipment."

The issue was a mouse nest, or rats nest depending on the story, that was inside Jerry Goodale's flow bench at the time of Pete's cylinder head testing.
Unknown at the time it affected the flow numbers. That said, If the nest was in there for the duration, then the numbers were at least relative to each other.
