About 600-650CFM for a 360 revving at 5200rpm (very mild modifications).
With Cam, Heads, Intake, Exhaust, 700-750CFM would be better.

You wouldn't happen to know the requirements for the 5.9L, would you?
I'm gonna get under the hood tomorrow, see what I can fit, if I can get
a 3.5" or 4" filter in there, I'll do that, not sure how much space I
have.
