I think that is scott foxwell??. I know someone from the forum here that recently sent their heads to him, and had the guides honed, and some other stuff done to them prior to bolting on. And so far has logged 3 poker runs since engines installled, cruising at 5000-5500rpm for almost 500 miles by water. So far so good.

Teague also sells their afr heads fully machined , but they switch to 3/8 valves i wanna say instead of 11/32 as they say they feel the 3/8 is a more durable setup. Thier words.

Well I guess it's no secret...and Mike, I explained exactly why I sent you the PM instead of replying so you're not being very honest here. If you want, I'll post my PM to you. Just trying to avoid the drama, that's my only agenda. Also, PM's are just that...PRIVATE messages. Thanks for respecting that.

A guy on yellow bullet bolted a set of out of the box afr's on his nova wagon 540 tt build ran 7's throughout all of drag week, no issue. Has something changed in the last year or so at afr?

mr foxwell,post the pm or if you would like i can do it.it does not take a lot of balls to come on with an alias but it does take balls to question my honesty.i am a respected member and i take offense to you questioning my honesty.
