... well that is simply not true, Fulton's car has always been a N20 car and it's faster now, and not because we threw more N20 at it, the car is faster because of the new CV-1 combo, it makes more power on the dyno, then the old E-Head combo and it's faster on the track then the old E-Head combo, and we're not finished yet, Fulton's car is certainly not dialed in yet, but we'll get it there, it just takes times, just like Marcella referenced Langer is working with a new combo and new combos are the worst he said, so Fulton's new combo is no different ...
... now as for the N/A thing, yes i agree it is the preferred method of comparison, but many would have you believe the CV-1 has never been in an apples to apples comparison on N/A engines before, which is also not true, Calvin Hill has built some combo's for Quinn and Poe and both out ran the heads they replaced, while a CV-1 engine build comparable to a Langer, Snyder, Dwight, Leech and some others level has not been completed yet, not to my knowledge anyways, and i mean something that's built to turn well over 9000rpm, i'm not referencing effort of the builds ...
... it's just something that has not happened ... yet ... but my point is that every car on my list i posted for Curt Geise, the car went faster after the CV-1's went on, and most of them are N/A, so we expect to see the same trend with our 9000+rpm effort as well, and that's just being honest, not boastful ...

I agree and think Dicks car is bad ass and beautiful. I am sure there was a cam change and other things done which have to be with power adder motors.
After we put motors together and run them, we all know after what we should have done to make things better.
Again, to silence the masses a max build n/a that runs with the top boys puts a stamp on everything you have been saying.
Power adder cars are good with heavy bottom ends for strength, n/a car like light weight for rpm purposes but there will be a fine line of staying together and coming apart.
