Yes. They were the new EHeads that were done by Rock and Roll (@#$%^&). I know, I know. Everything I see about Rock and Roll is terrible. All I can say is they had had a mild port and clean up and at least "looked" good. I still think I'm killing this redneck converter. I didn't realize it is their most basic one and only rated to 400 hp. I don't think it ever locks up.

I will have concrete data from a redneck to continental swap on July 17.

Seat of the pants testing shows that the conti couples a lot harder.

Good. Before I spend that kind of money I'd like some actual numbers. Keep us posted.
