1) Robin Robert's Fully ported Tiger's with a tunnel ram went 10.0's on motor in his N20 prepped car, with out of the box CV-1's the car went 9.70's right off the trailer ...

2) Kelvin Poe's DB prepped HighPort combo went high 8.30's and with Calvin's CV-1 top end it went 8.0's first weekend out ...

3) Ken Keefer's 300cfm E-Head combo ran 10.50's before and went 10.0's with his out of the box CV-1 top end ...

4) Bruce Drigger's CV-1 top end picked up 1.5 tenths in the 1/8th over his CNC'd E-Head top end ...

5) Jeff Rana changed from his CV-1 top end to a High Port top end and the car was faster with his CV-1 top end ...

6) Smart Buy (PY User) 3900lb 428c.i. pump gas combo went from 12.80's to 12.20's with his out of the box CV-1 top end over his ported iron heads ...

7) Clay Phillips ran high 9.30's with his Dan Whitmore RA-IV top end and improved to 9.14's with his CV-1 top end ... stock block combo ...

8) Larry Quinn with his formerly owned Langer Wenzler heads ran high 8.95's and improved to 8.70's with his CV-1 top end ... 481c.i. combo ...

9) Brian Hedrick with his ProCharged BES ported E-Heads ran high 8.60's and went low 8.40's with his as cast CV-1 top end, and picked up 140hp on the dyno also ...

10) Randy B. (BIR Minnesota Racer) with his 505c.i. combo picked up 2.4 tenths and 4.6 mph over his KRE heads right off the trailor ...

... now there are others that are not a direct before and after comparison, meaning these customers built the car with a CV-1 combo in it to start, just some are Mike McCarty which runs high 9.60's in true pump gas street trim at 3400lbs, and Torry Rockwood at 3360lbs runs 9.0's at 149mph with his CV-1 combo shifting at only 6900rpm also, and Robert Brown with his street driven 2nd gen TransAm Turbo car ran high 8.60's at almost 160 mph ...

... so to assume the CV-1 program has been idle for seven years, is well, simply not true, these heads have been doing work for some time now, and there are others that i did not name on my list, but i am trying to condense here ...

... and i think Dick Fulton certainly deserves mention here as his combo has been showing serious HP at his 3140lb weight N20 combo, as he clicked off 180+ mph at Norwalk this year in very hot ugly weather, and the last run we made when he lifted very early, posted up a 7.62 at only 173mph, with the previous run posting the 180+mph, which is very obvious his car certainly has more left in the tank, and to think his old E-Head combo would do the same in that weather, with that tight convertor, and a hurt cylinder, and lifting that early, is just simply retarded, that combo would have struggled to stay in the 7's this year at Norwalk, and those are Dick Fulton's words ...

... and I forgot to add, Robert Brown's TransAm runs on pump gas, and it weighs 4031lbs ...
