Convertible exhaust port option
|
The new Spread Port CV-1 can produce dramatic power increases over the
factory head designs with no additional porting required. Therefore, it is mandatory to include quality
components in the short block to handle the increased power. Even better, enlist the services of a reputable performance
engine builder for an assembly that can be tailored to your needs.
**Some applications could experience clearance issues with underhood
accessories which may require modification**
The following four options must be specified when ordering a set
of CV-1 cylinder heads for your traditional Pontiac powered vehicle. There are no extra charges for options except where noted:
1. Small or large combustion chamber volume- 65cc or 92cc
2. Round port exhaust or *convertible port* (see above) with tapped bosses for custom
headers
3. Roller rocker or offset shaft rocker usage. The latter comes with pushrod
reliefs minimized for maximum porting(available soon)
4. Water jacketed or *solid dry head*
*Extra charge- see pricing*
When ordering, please specify the answers in writing to these options and fax
or email it with your name, business shipping address, method of payment, and daytime phone #.
