OK AFAIR the display should come out of the scandoubler, but I also seem to recall that the scandoubler only works correctly with the A4000, hang on a tick I'll have a look....and fix some typos :-)

....from the big book of amiga hardware:
CV64/3D
A companion scan-doubler card was also made for this graphics card which is designed to fit AGA-style video slots. A monitor switcher and MPEG Card were also planned, although the MPEG card was made, it was never released to the public. The scandoubler does not work fully in non-AGA systems, the native display is not scandoubled but is simply passed through.

The site also has a manual for the scandoubler for download.

Sorry missread, thought was the module for the CV64/3D!

Try the FFixer display, the CV64/3d doesn't have a passthrough like the CV64 that I have, on my system the cable comes out of the 31KHz port of the FFixer then into the CV64 then out to the monitor.  You might need a passthru box like the BMon that Eyetech sold.  Try it and see it the CV64/3d modes can be displayed with the FFixer output.  Use the USE button on the screenmode so if you can't see the CV64/3d display you can just reboot to get back to a useable screen mode.  Your FFixer sould display PAL/NTSC Hires laced ok on a svga.

:-)

Good luck!  Should be ok though!
You might end up having to use 2 monitors or one of those monitor switchboxes, since the displays are both svga a pc switcher should work??  Emial Eyetech in the UK they might have some BMons left or might be able to advise your best course of action to get your system running.  

TTFN!
