Mike,
Just one of many who have serviced their country. I am glad I never had to part of a missle launch anywhere, but at the test range in New Mexico.

Asking for a free set of cv1s is a joke, nothing more.

And me not getting a set of Warp 6s is fine we made something better.

Seems that the head had this reputation because of a few cyl head guys opinions. Hmmm , where the wrong ?

You know what they say ......" The proof is in the pudding"

With that said, how has the pudding tasted for the last 7 years of effort ?

It would seem reasonable that having only 1 customer(Robin Roberts) that comes to mind actually laying down good numbers out of the first 50 sets of heads could have a negative effect on future sales too, I realize it is much easier on Jims ego to blame everybody else but I do believe that there are more factors than just people talking about it badly. Even at this point, if they started putting up good numbers people would look to get them.

This is where it get interesting --- did the heads perform AS DESIGNED, AS A STREET HEAD, maybe. That would have been fine if it were left there, BUT the lies and the B.S. first started with the "frantic few" that were so over the top in love with the head they made outlandish claims about "what we are going to do" that it really started a back lash. Here is a clue - DO IT FIRST , THEN BRAG ABOUT IT, don't say your going to do it for 6 or 7 years -- and not.
So -- did people take shots at the head and expose some "REALITY" that drowned out all the inaccuracies that were being spread around about the head, it would seems so. Bottom line is those that were yelling the loudest in support were actually shooting your selves in the foot and tainting the heads in the eyes of other. It would seem that as time has gone by those that have "bashed" the head -- your words-- are more accurate in its assessment than those that were proclaiming it as the next best thing. Now tell us again who killed the head with all BS AND THE LIES ?????????

Under cammed when compared to the 1.8 rocker ratio the cv enjoyed over the hi port.
You are pleased with a tenth advantage with more cam and a 70 cfm advantage? .
it was never us vs them for me. It is me and my $ for me. Youre free to spend yours as you like?
I did exactly what you guys want hedrick to do. I sold my stuff and moved on to other choices.
I didnt release my results to many out of courtesy to jim. I have no axe to grind with him. He knows how I feel about his choices In r n d and spokesmen. I had conveyed my opinions to him. Its his business his choices.
Funny thing. Within minutes of my post this morning I got a text from a camp member who knew and had felt many of the same things. Your "side" is sick of waiting too.
I refer you to my statement. Stop talking and start doing. Even you must be tired of being on the defense.

Jeff was pulling your leg.

It's not bragging if you back it up.
