Might be just the thing to build a bridge between the two camps.

It might be a good thing but at this point I don't know how much impact it would actually have on the anti CV camp... Then thinking again there's probably more not anti cv1 than haters.

So.... My guess is that Jim would need alot of sincere requests...then come up with consensus on runner/plenum minimum size, options, and pricing/deposit amounts. (More = lower cost).

I can't speak for Jim so you all would need to drop him a message.

Good luck. I'd like to see that too. It would certainly be a high quality piece imo.

H&M makes one, it starts out life as a BBC manifold. They make it for std port E heads and Wide Ports. 1600$, includes matching it to your heads.
Not heard of any out there and how they run. But they do make it for RAIVish size ports.
Any kind of top you want.

... WTF is wrong with you dude ?????? ... You must be smoking crack if you honestly think the majority on this forum do not completely see you for the Bias POS CV-1 hater that you've proven yourself to be for close to a decade !!!! ...

... you are a total moron ...

I guess if Chief ever gets done with his old E head motor, oh and the new E head motor with a Billet block, I guess he might try out that CV1 and he will find out any issues with it for himself and has nothing to do with wall thickness.

Has it been a decade already? That sure is a long time!

I would have thought they would have taken over the Pontiac world by now.

Makes a lot of people thing who is the moron?

I have emailed Dave a few times, called and left plenty of messages as well to get a set of heads done and order a intake. Never heard back from either email or voicemail.
Went a different route.

I did the same thing, left a couple messages & emails with no replies. After several attempts he answered the phone, and we were able to discuss my build at length. He works out of his home, and he says he is just about always there. I can’t answer to the lack of replies, but I do know he eventually will answer the phone. He is going to work my Hi-port heads & intake for my next build. I’m going to drop the heads off soon, he said it would be a couple months before he is finished.

I had a similar experience with SD performance in Canada as you did with Dave. I understand why you would move on, I did the same thing when I couldn’t make contact with SD performance.

They are plenty of other porters that do answer calls and make big power. If the one you want doesn't answer just move on to the next one.

... maybe, but i doubt it ... our haters will always be haters that's a fact ...

... but really doesn't matter as we can make the R2 Wedge Tunnel Ram regardless, it would have be PreOrder only, no way we can cover something like that right now with everything else going on ...

... i guess that would come down to just how many people wanted/needed one ...

... also the set up of the Tunnel Ram would also need to be sorted out, runner length being a key part, not everyone wants to spin their engine really high and some do ... it would certainly be doable
