CV-1 heads win at Pontiac Heaven
Attaboy goes out to Jason H.
for winning the main event bracket race at Pontiac Heaven last weekend. Jason reported back to back runs in the 9.33-9.34
range to take home the title and the loot! Look for the write up in HPP, who was on hand for the story and to snap some pics
of his beautiful '69 GTO.
New best for Jason's '69 GTO as he tweaks his tune up with out of the
box unported CV-1 heads!
1 second ET reduction w/ CV-1 heads... on this stunning '69 GTO! Well known midwest racer Jason
H. decided to step up his game with a do-it-yourself 535 engine build. He knew he'd pick up over his 462 e-head
combo, but was surprised at the amount on the second time out!
Old combo:
New combo: 12cr 462
13.5cr 535 310cfm E-heads
unported CV-1's roller cam
roller cam . Old
combo ran consistent 10.20 +/- .05 depending on track and weather. New combo ran 9.25 the SECOND
time out! With some tuning, Jason will be knocking on high 8's with out of the box CV-1's!
Mighty T/A is back- 8.13 @ 170!
Robin Robert's famous '76 T/A was back in action recently at Speedworld in
Phoenix. As the only non-BBC powered entry in the 20 car field, Mighty T/A drew instant visibility with his CV-1 headed
535. The competition was fierce, as the field consisted of seasoned veterans with supercharged and nitroused big inch powerplants.
Between rounds, Robin and crew were battling a new problem... wheelstand! from the new BLP carb provided by Bill from
APD. Robin says "the best carb i've ever run" was worth significant increases in throttle response, street driveability,
and off the line power. When the smoke cleared, Robin's CV-1 T/A had advanced to the final round, losing to a wheelstand instead
of his opponent! Chassis changes and cage upgrades to the 3350lb T/A are
being made so that Robin can get back to his quest of "the fastest street pontiac on the planet".

Hats off to Jeff from RI for piloting his 3520lb GTO to a very respectable
N/A performance. His combo consists of unported 10.8cr CV-1 heads and CVI-1 single four intake on a 511ci motor with auto
trans. Jeff relates this combo is very street-friendly with water temps in the 180* range last summer while attending all
the local car shows.
