Get back to me when you make that easy 850 HP with standard port Eheads, that has to be a record. Now you are sounding like a CV-1 nut hugger!
Btw, how long ago did you run 9.90's, wasn't a few years ago?
How much faster are you today?

I don't know of anyone personally who has gone faster with CV heads than they were before... TTBill is the guy you should ask on that because he is the one who is always typing that in. The few I have seen use them didn't go any faster if they even went as fast. Last guy I knew of was a roots blown deal in Tulsa by a guy named Bill who quit his CV program, sold his car and bought a Harley... I lined up with him in his firebird and ran off and left him Motor to blower...
Out here in the woods $300 will get you a lot more
As far as the 850 I am sure with an IA block and good rotating assembly and cam that 850 is highly doable with E-heads so I guess the gauntlet has been thrown out on that deal... I know 719 HP at 314 cfm with a really mild build (definitely not a maxed out deal) shows the potential for a lot better is there...
I haven't been on a drag strip since 2012 but many summer nights you can find me on the street...usually between 12:00 AM and 3:00 AM mid week...
My street car with 8.5:1 compression definitely has more than my track car had but it also has a power adder...
Best my old car ran in the fall of the year was a 9.72 and in 90+ temps 3000+ foot stuff went 9.90's...
