Default Camel Hump Heads

does anyone know if there is a difference in the flow rate of the three different types of camel hump heads? is one type better than the other or are they basically the same? i have never used camel hump heads but, i'm looking for a better flowing iron head. Sick

The 461, 462, 291's all flow about the same, but, the 291's were made for 283 power pack set up with a 3.875 cyl. bore. The 461's were made for use with dome pistons.
