Okay, somebody school me here, Bob m. used to give similar question information on threads and got railed against as a “designer“ now it's all different, why?
No dog in the fight but very curious as I'm sure many others may be.
Hp1 seems to know his chit, but bm had many happy customers as well and is now a.pariah in somes eyes.
I seriously hope this forum can get back to tech some day,but it's not looking good. At the end of the day we're boaters and want to maximize performance, isn't it easier to help each other than spend so much energy bashing.

I was recently reading a thread on one of the other forums. I dont recall all of the details. But I remember horsepower1 being the main guy posting, and it was regarding some of the design issues with afrs casting, or what he felt were issues. What i found interesting, was Tim, from air flow research, chimed in on the thread, thanking him for bringing the issues up, and said that on their next run of bbc head castings, they would be making the according changes, based on that information.
Sorry, but I have to think, if horsepower1 made posts, that the manufacturer of the said product, is going to actually make a change based upon his findings, i would think "this guys no dummy"
Maybe he can talk about that, i dont recall the details of the whole thing.

I don't care if it's Bob or Straub/Foxwell.....
It would be great for all of them to share free info that we can choose to do whatever we want with, besides argue over
They ALL have mad mistakes, its how they handle those mistakes that matters to me.
And if someone wants to warn us of a company's mistake, great, warn us, we should openly accept the warning, lets thank them, doesn't matter if we agree or disagree and move on.

I tried starting a thread with some good Info to help protect ourselves from these engine developers who can easily point the finger at the builder, the assembler, the machinest, or even thier own customer not standing behind what they helped design. But unfortunately it was deleted.
