didthatjusthappen?

I heard it really did happen and it cost the customer extra... for someone else to fix... dont know that this "impecably qualified" person made good on the situation.

I wouldnt be as quiet about it if I LOST 60 hp after an expensive upgrade... even if the guy is "impeccably qualified"! I guess not having a helper he's soley at fault.

I'm hopin the "impeccably qualified" person made things right with the customer. Or plans to.

If Ferrari said it was going to introduce a new super car there would be excitement all over the world -- If Ugo was to announce the same thing, People would at the very least be highly suspect. I hope that helps you "get it"

sooo,
if my product has the longest warranty in the applicative market, and there are no returns on design isues, this should be an insurance panacea,,, right?

if so, then why, as an agent, do you continue your campaign of slash and burn of new products, before they are tested??

Since some of the top Pontiac builds are pushing the 1200 hp mark now these heads should make 1300+ NA or why do it in my opinion. They look awesome and I hope they can set a new record etc etc. I don't see a huge market for the heads regardless of what power they eventually make. It Should be the head to have for all out racing. With that being said who here thinks they will ever sell more than 10 sets? 11k for a bare set of heads is not in the budget for any Pontiac racers I know. Then you still have to get them finished plus the cost of everything else to use these heads let alone make them work well.

I see the market for what it is, there are maybe 4 or 5 guys on these forums that would maybe step up and use these heads, this is why being a billet head is a good idea, you simply won't sell many. I hope I'm wrong.

With the other make of heads available making 800-1000 hp I don't see these heads being a player in the street car market to increase the market share potential.

I know these are not intended to be a street car head but maybe the street version will be cheaper, I don't see how because cnc time is cnc time, it knows no difference from a race head or a street head.


I'd like to see a poll on how many people would actually buy these heads, say they make 1300 hp with relative ease, how many of us would buy them?

I have pictures on my old phone that he sent me with him porting my heads and assembling my motor with the blue and white background at his shop.

There is a lot of power to make and loose in a bottom end and camshaft. The heads and intake are just one part of the puzzle.

If Dick lost 50 HP with the same package that Jeff and I have on our cars something is wrong with the builder sorry to say it, that top end package has been proven to make 1k HP at the track!!

ET slips don't lie!

I guarantee you it won't take six years for that Billet head to show you some results!

Nice looking heads! Based on past performance, I doubt lil Jack and Gaby will fall short with this project, and I doubt it will take longer than a few months before time slips are posted.

How will these heads compare weight-wise compared to the E heads? It looks like they might be lighter, or is that just the bling-affect illusion?

We've been on the sidelines for the last two year waiting for you guys to catch up. Maybe the new head will help. Just don't let Wreckmaster tune it. Ouch!!
If I weighed 3,000# I would have past you five years ago

If this un tested head has any chance at all, it NO WAY can it be endorsed or spoken about by the MASSHOLE plumber!!!

Instant credibility loss.

Much like the guy in the Movie Bronx tale when they are at the track making bets.
