What have E headed cars done recently?
 
With the Quickest cars (1/4 mile) out there running OTHER heads and racers switching over to Billet, seems like E-heads are dying out! The quickest Pontiac out there has Warp heads, the quickest Bodied car out there running RA5 heads, the quickest NA door car has Warp, the quickest Nitrous door car has CV-1 heads. Hell in the KRE Quick 16 at Norwalk the first 5 cars had NO E-heads on them.....just saying. Is the E-head vanishing from the QUICK cars?

They are alive, well and winning races in this part of the country. I've prepped eight pairs this year and sold several other sets.


EHTTFMF !!!

GTOGeorge,
How many more E heads do think were sold last month verses warp 6's? How much money do you think KRE has lost on Warp 6 development and sells over the years?

From the outside looking in. I would say the Tiger is number one performance head at the moment for most people with the RAV moving quickly up the ladder.

No you would not do that just every other head in every other thread is OK for you :)

Local tracks are fine. I have seen Scott Rex, Jeff Kinsler, John Synder, Brian Hedrick, the Pickett fleet, etc. run.

That covers most of the heads. :)

Don't need to go to Norwalk and see some of those cars that only show up once or twice a year at a race track.

A light weight twin turbo car........should! He doesn't run 1/4 mile so who knows, probably not. Besides he traded in the e-heads (we'll never know)..........probably wanted to run quicker.

when KRE was running there blown dragster with warp 6 heads and everyone was getting wet about there ET and mph I did some comparison on the Wallace calculator - My E-headed turbo car was showing more HP than there warp 6 dragster -- just fact.

They still run the draghster. HP is shown by MPH.........funny car are running a lot more a MPH then Dragsters........same engines! Twin turbo engines have always out MPH roots blower cars, got nothing to do with the heads. Turbos are just boring.....although getting better. LOL!

GTOGeorge,
What dragster and Fun Cars are you talking about? Not Alcohol! Maybe Nitro but the Fun Cars do not run the same engine management - "Limiter" that the Dragster do. To slow the Fun Cars down they will run the same "Limiter" starting in 2018.

Just as a by the way. How close is Big Chief and Curt's car aero dynamically to today's Nitro Fun Car body?

Fast is fast whether it's 1/8th or 1/4 mile...Chiefs **** is fast and it has always had standard port Eheads on it. I know they are switching and those CVies have big boots to try and fill from the old standard port ehead...
