Stan, My Point Is:

1) John Marcella can truly make 1000+ hp with the CV-1 head (if he welds on it and moves stuff around).

2) I am comparing a "as cast" CV-1 head (not reworked by a Professional Porter/Welder to Marcella's design VS the changes that John Marcella said the head would need to be offered in production (as a "fixed" head with updated design changes).

Those needed design changes would be as John Marcella posted: "it would have taken a intake core, ex core and a water jacket core change and a modification to the core under the valve cover."

So what part do you not get?

If you have to change all of the mentioned pieces: "a intake core, ex core and a water jacket core change and a modification to the core under the valve cover" to make power in John Marcella's expert opinion, what are you buying out of the box?
