I switched over to provost and after looking at the provost high flow plugs (steel) it appears the Milton V (brass) would outflow the provost? The provost inlet it is bigger than the Milton V but the outlet (threaded side) is much bigger on the Milton V. Does the threaded side on the plug have any effect on flow or is it only the inlet?

It can only flow at much as the smallest cross sectional area thru the whole line...

Which Prevost series plugs are those?

Even the Milton brass and steel V-style plugs have a different inside diameter on the threaded end.

In the picture below, Milton V-style brass on the left, and Milton V-style steel on the right, for the threaded end:

And below is a similar picture for the coupling end:

The smallest diameter through the fitting is what matters, and they are both probably similar.
