"Flowtested" by what standards? A typical factory DET head flows 200cfm intake 170cfm exhaust. A factory VE head flows 275cfm intake, 200cfm exhaust. Claiming it'll flow 1000hp isn't a unit of measure. I highly doubt it is close to or in the 300cfm range. Regardless, there are other benefits to using the VE head over the DE/DET head such as shaft mounted rocker arms, better cooling passages and being able to have a tame low lobe cam for cruising around and then the high lobe cam for romping and make the power you want.

My fault, according to the company it's 314cfm. Like I said, this is not a DET head. It's a Primera Highport DE head. The camshafts are Kelford and have 285 duration and 13.6 lift. I don't know anymore I'm afraid The cooling passages are also modified by the same company. Anyways, this thread isn't for DE/T vs VE. If I had known more about the head maybe I could have sold it and bought a VE head, but this head has already alot of work to it.
