Has a set of CV1s gone in the 7s yet?

Has a 3200#+ NA cv1 car gone faster then an 8.42?

No they have not so would not say they can do the same thing.

1. Robin ran an 813 with lessor heads than he now has so yes he can in my opinion.

2. No cv1 cars have ran in jeffs conditions, cold winter weather, so who knows. Jeffs normal times are in the high 8's, cv1 cars have done that

Let's think big for a minute...do you think if I put $12,000 into porting a set of CV1s on my engine (and added the required chassis, Procharger, trans, etc) my Pontiac could run with Stevie Fast?

Things that make you go hummm.

Much like the number of licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie pop the world may never know because I understand Mr Jackson's car was sold and now resides in the Middle East.

so you are trying to say quinn's very nice car by the way is 3000? nope its not.

FACE IT YOU DON'T HAVE A CAR THAT YOU CAN POINT TO....WHY IS IT AGAIN HE DOES NOT RUN THE HEADS UP DEAL?

Its not like i'm in the top half of the field so I'm by no means saying his car does not run good... it does. I'd like to see him run that heads up deal. there is no penalty for being clutch-less and the first cv1 that runs it gets a free ride. You should really consider showing people over telling people.

When someone buys a set of heads, what are they really buying? A set of heads or horsepower???????? I say HP. So when you look at it like that how is the bang for the buck?

I still say bang for the buck is warp 6, but no one else seems to think so.


And for the idiot preaching 4K for the CV vs the 12k e-head, YOU NEED TO GET REAL.
The 2 heads have no were near the same parts in them. And you know that. And there is a big difference in the cost of those parts.And you know that.
I really am having trouble believing that you are as stupid as most of the chit you post and that you have that screwed up of a point of view. No joke , i feel sorry for you if you are being real.

How did you do at the heads up race at Norwalk last year? Or any other year? Oh yeah you never entered it.


ps, Quinn cant run that race because of NSS rules. Note, Leech asked for 1 car I gave him 1, stop trying to deflect for him. Stop moving the goal post..

I've been reading this for two days now and this is what I've come up with. I've been building and racing only Pontiacs since 1983, back then I just wished we had an aftermarket world like the Chevys, now we do. There's not many Pontiac guys where I'm at so I've always felt like I'm waving the banner by myself, which I'm proud to do. It's been a goal of mine to make it to Norwalk and meet some fellow banner carriers. After reading all this bickering I don't really care if I meet any of you. My sons and I will be at Pontiac Heaven having fun doing what we do and maybe if things go good we will make Norwalk
to race the " big boys". Rant over

I didn't imply you did DS, i said if you want to spend 12k go ahead, because we were talking about Jeff running high 8's with 12k to duplicate heads, are you guys really this stupid where you cant follow a general conversation?

YOU SAID for 4k the CV-1 will do the same thing that kinsler does for 12k. That means running 8.8s @ 152+ in the heads up race! Tell us of 1 cv-1 car that backs up you claim!
Your mouth causes more problems for Bill & Jim!
