I haven't seen any flow numbers from the Coyote heads, but the most I've ever seen a 4V Modular head flow (after extensive porting) is around 340 cfm.
Now, having said that, flow isn't everything, and even with the best flowing heads, 302 cubic inches can only do so much without forced induction.
I personally just can't get on the Coyote bandwagon. I believe it just happened to show up at a time where a lot of Cobra owners just wanted something different than the standard FE, or stroked Windsor. However, there is no real benefit to it, especially if a lot of horsepower is desired. My caveat to that goes to the Cobra owners in other countries/continents that have very strict emissions/engineering rules, or have limited access to aftermarket engines in general. In that case, I would certainly choose a Coyote or other Ford engine over a GM counterpart.
