Scott you are obviously building a cv powered car for serious ultra or heads up class. What are you building? Your old firebird? Who is doing your motor and head work? Is Wilcox involved again?

Bruce I didn't answer this question. I thought you were being sarcastic.

Hell why not.
Kelvin Poe made around 150hp more with his cv-1 engine vs his HP engine. Car picked up .2-.3 and 3mph? Would you be happy with that Bill? Sounds like you find it to be an impressive gain.
Again you brought his car into this discussion not me.

Lol! No hate, just saying i didn't find it impressive like Bill did. I know when i gained 150hp my car ran .5+ quicker and 10mph. Thought i should point out why i felt that way.

TTB is very well versed in expected gains from increased power. All of his CV1 combos have made more power than their predecessor.

I'm not impressed with the 1290 either, didn't show a pony over the 11xx that was in the next lane.

Maybe in time it will.

So who lost power over previous heads Paul? Do tell.

BTW you deserve a point of credit this time...at least you dropped a name.

Again, there is more to a race car than the heads. A bad converter alone could do what you describe. Why do you assume it was the heads? If the engine MADE 150 hp more, it sure sounds like it was something else. This is amazing to me. Is there a 101 class for racing here? Sure seems like some folks need to start back at the beginning.
