BBC SR20's - need to know how good?

I have not been able to do any dyno testing on SR20 BBC cylinder heads.

I am doing a BBC porting video and I feel I should cover these heads in reasonable detail. They have a reputation for making better than average race power. Can anyone confirm this???

I've heard that the BR20's are the poor mans version and have alot to offer.

They are significantly better than regular bbc heads.

Just wondering how much the steeper valve seats are worth. I think the Brodix SR20 have a 50° intake and 55° exhaust seat or am i wrong? Does any one know how the BRX as cast heads compare as they seem as they are as good as the CNC ported and only drop off at .700" and up slightly? The original topic didn't seem to get into it very much and was short lived.
