I get it....If this is the true stage, and it were mine, even working 60hrs a week, taking time to pull the wife's hair (gently ), with lots of breaks for internet racing fun, that biotch would be done in two weeks tops....just sayin

Sorry man but bad answer....Your last sentence sums it up and answers the question. Slowbird reading comprehension is fine. Bruce's statement clearly implies that the belt is proven and better/stronger. That led me to the same conclusion that it is better/stronger......HOW? Have there been failures? Seems the BOP piece is proven to me, but I'm not a belt drive engineer either. And I run the lowly timing chain on the fireturd.

Not everyone can put up such a helpful and courteous post like you have here, if he needs to work on his reading skills you most certainly should put in the same amount of time working on your people skills!

WOW! You picked up on the sarcasm part, very perceptive! What about the truth part in the second half?

Truth Dan? This is where it always takes a "LEFT" turn. Most of the koolaide drinkers prefer the emotional defense rather than the logical truth based version.....

Yeah, it happens! Here is what I think... I hope Bill can get his deal together, I hope that their drive system is trouble free and doesn't violate any copyrights and he can get out there and get running. I am pretty sure I am not the only one that feels this way, I would postulate that this would be the general consensus from most of us, You know, all of us that that camp thinks we hate them and wish them to fail.

... truth ?? ... you mean like the truth that you've told others that you feel its just a matter of time that CV-1's will make big power on the right build, and that you look at them as a possible upgrade to what you have ?? ...

... the source is a trust worthy person, so if its true, then why don't any of your posts reflect this position ?? ...

I've said it repeatedly bill....here and elsewhere and I was not joshing. I would say I no longer would run them personally for a few reasons. I would think your engine should make big numbers. FO REAL.

Mike must have been drunk when he said that!

They don't even make a CV1 head anymore, if it has been 7 years and not even 1,000 HP N/A hasn't been achieved yet?
