Default Pro Ports A BIG FLOP?
It has been what, two-three years and have not heard of any one but Magic man running them successfully. Did not hear them make a big splash recently at Norwalk or any where else this season.

What's the story with the EdelBrock Pro Port program?

CNC time isn't cheap and there is a lot of material to remove.
Check the price of a 425cfm CV1 or Tiger head.

Jim Robertson has a CNC program ready for the pro ports. As far as i know the head hasn't been tested yet. The flow numbers sound promising.

I am just joking with the CV guys! I have no issue with the head and think guys like Bill and Calvin have and will make some nice power...The bracket motor Calvin built made some big power, right in line with the 555ci big chevy bracket motors with less cubes!

Agreed. Anyone else see Majic Man as a common denominator here?
