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? :confused2:confused2

I have a set, they have been ported 6 different times, they aren't on a motor yet but but according to my calculator, I will be able to beat all the ECM cars... y'all just wait..and wait..and wait...and wait..and wait...and wait........

Butler has a 425 cfm race program and a 380 cfm for the street out now. its a lot of money though.. More then I thought it would be anyway..

He didn't tell me and I didn't ask because right after that he told me the price! lol! The price did include the manifold too though...

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

I get what he was saying but lol I couldn't help it.


I think Magic man did good with th Pro Ports he had.....MJM does WELL with magic man CV-1's. The Pontiac fan in me wants to see more guys running both!!!!

I still think its a great to be a Pontiac guy!

David Holmberg 08-13-2013 11:15 PM

S/st 54, absolutely!

I agree! I'm sure it was tongue in cheek....from you and scott.

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.

Scott Roberts 08-13-2013 11:58 PM

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!

blueghoast 08-14-2013 12:11 AM

So whats the price of the pro-ports street version ??

GT.

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