BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Please list the fast Wenzler Series II or Super Chief cars? BTW, my dad has a set of Super Chiefs. He hasn't had any issues with them. |

I believe Neal Owens and John Langer campaigned the Series II HPs back in the day and they did pretty well and not just against other Pontiacs in NMCA. As for now, obviously there are other and better choices.

The Wenzler head as cast wouldn't set any records. |

Tom, not that it's a big deal but Dave had two pairs of Wenzlers, a series one and two. The series II's were the only ones to break into the eights. The series ones however have a better exhaust port but the series two were of better quality.

Back to the thread topic...how many of you think, regardless of the outcome of the race that most, at least those that posted in this thread, will not change their opinions.

However, it would be interesting to see some NA passes on both combos. Seems a lot of non believers of Fulton's NA HP. No one with a Pontiac that I'm aware of has made 1100 plus HP NA at 13:1 compression. Little Jacks NA base power ??? Would be interesting to see how much power adder they added. Possibly some opinions might change then. |

TRUTH! That would be a good evaluation of the capabilities of both cars/drivers/race combinations on the same track, same week-end. Tom V.

You can buy same ported casting as Fultons CV1 (max cast 330) with same valve job, same flow for far far less than a billet head + porting + valvetrain. It IS NOT a one off port. Bill digitized it over 3 years ago. Dick is not only one with this port, he finished his build sooner. Depending on how you intend to use it you might not need the shaft rockers or need as high a level valvetrain. Options obviously affect price. You can opt for lesser or greater port capability and other options as best fits your application.
And yes I get the budget thing. Its still going to be awhile before I can buy the entry level cv1's to replace my iron heads. With turbo's it just not a high priority. |
