CV's and a Unicorn have a lot in common.

Well, not the way I meant it. I meant it in a way, that he should prove that they are hands down a better head. Go kick some butt.
He shown that he could out run his 400cfm E heads with the same cam as with his standard wide ports. Did not give them a fair shot IMO.
Ran faster, know of mid 7.60 pass and maybe a 7.56. But he ran a 7.71 with E heads. Who is to say that if he had given the new 400cfm WPs a real effort, new cam and trying to maximize the combo he could not have gotten the tenth-tenth and a half gain from the CVs ? Not a lot of gain for all the money it "should" have cost him. Bet they were a freebee.
E heads are a great head for the vast majority of racers. Can make 1100HP + without huge effort. Racers don't have a hard time keeping plugs in them, or worse. Great engines hit the same every hole.
A few have stepped up to some of the billet heads. Make more power, sure. But not "that" much more really. 100HP-250HP for multiple "tens" of thousands of dollars more.
Hey, if you can afford it that is awesome. Great to be you.
But the money I am hearing for the top ends, is just nuts, bonkers crazy for what your get back for almost everyone but a few.
But George, myself being a NA guy people are starting to go your direction. Put a blower, centrifugal or turbo on it. Cheaper in the long run.

Don’t forget he was 100 lbs heavier with the cv heads.....that’s pretty darn good with a head change. Eheads are a good starter head but KRE HP is a better bang for your buck!
Blower cheaper, HAH........build one first then see how cheap it is! It don’t cost much to run 20’s.....seriously, go make some HP!

KRE High Ports are the better head (have both) Still, one has yet to beat Mike L.
Shows how underrated the E head is and just how good Mike, Marcella and S Brown were together.

If Langer says he is going boost because even "he" can not afford it anymore, I will take him at his word. 5K for a weekend. I spend 200$. Heard he has several sets of 500$+ pac springs in his pit. Checks them every run. Expensive game.

Langer is running heads up I’m sure they all are dishing out that much! If you want to play you got to pay! $200 for you that’s probably counting a $125 entry fee! LOL! I go through 4 gal of alky per run, that’s not counting warming it up that’s another 4 gal at up to $4.50!a gal.

Let's be clear. I never said I could not afford na racing anymore. There is more bang for the buck and more venues to race at with a power adder.

You were violated by a set of E heads in the past weren’t you?
