Upon request, yes.
We log all Stage II-up, and testing is performed on our SuperFlow 600, with the use of velocity probes/Betts *****, on top of the given bore size/fixture that the head will be used on.

You took a clean sweep at King's Dragway last summer, from what we heard?
Oh, btw, we purchased all the remaining inventory/tools/fixtures from Thunderin' Cycles, Watertown, NY, last July.
