He said they should flow a little better, though. As I said, he did a great job with them, probably in the 390+ cfm range after freshening them. I don't think anybody's gotten much anymore then that out of a set of standard port HP's. He also ported my BOP intake to match them. Dan's a good guy and for sure knows what he's doing. I have nothing but good things to say about what he did for me and my HP's. But, like the rest of us, he's human and he was wrong IF he told you a good set of HP's, at least standard port HP's, would run away from CV-1's. That wasn't the case with me. Like I said, LET IT GO, I'm done with this...

One last thing.... my car ran 8.80's before I pulled the heads and sent them to Dan. First time down the track after I got them back from him I went 8.60's. Then, 2 years of tweaking and tuning and him freshening them, I got it down to 8.38. So yes, he got all there was to get out of them.
