With a time machine you could race his car on foot. Let the tree come down, and on green be standing at the finish line with a beer in one hand and a chicken wing in the other.

All this back and forth BS about the best e head , WGAF ITS A E HEADd! Mikes Head is very straightforward with nothing moved nothing welded. I could very easily way out do Mike's head but it's just not worth while to put that kind of work ,effort and money into that platform when there's way better stuff available to put that effort into.

KO, your set up sounds killer but sack up and put in the other lane in you think it has the goods!

shouldnt you be on Chevy lovers.com???

this all exploded from my simple comment stating I think I have a pretty good set and thought about having them copied, Im not in the cylinder head business but there are other venues selling inferior products might want something to go off.

this whole thread started out as complete joke, some people's fragile egos got threatened


the only thing welded on my heads are the pushrod holes because they we're not available without when they first came out

all Im asking for from Mike is a level playing field

But.... but don't you already have the unfair advantage of having "the best set of Edelbrock Performer Pontiac heads on the planet"?

Don't know who he is?

I think Leech sounds like the guy who knows the competition can't do anything right now because most are down for maintenance or whatever.

Easy to make wild boasts when the racing is over for most until next spring.

Notice when the others were still running, not much 'action' was coming from him?
(other than keyboard pic racing)

You lil tard. You didn't feel right on the big dragster so you cut it down like the bus you rode to school.

Everyone has time to get there stuff running. Norwalk is not until August right?

KO no disrespect, but just show up there with what you got. Anything can happen on any day, tire spin, broke rear, broke tranny...... like the lotto says "you never know"
If you come in 300 lbs heavier and beat him you will be the undisputed heavyweight champ and can talk as much chit as you want then! Good luck to all.

You lifted on the 8.51 pass to stay within your cert

If I had the best E-heads on the planet, (and I don't) I would shift that bitch at 8000 at the least. Hell, you have a 7 second car there pal. Why do you need to put your engine in Kinsler's car? Why are you worried about a few pounds? Why not race Mike?
Is there something else you need to tell us?

BS you already made it clear you want an advantage. Read below.

Downside:
Jeff's can only get his car down to 3150#
That's your one down side. Sounds like 5 ups and 1 down. And I'm ok with it too.

You're trying really hard to sound downtrodden.
