I also make sure my boat insurance is paid on time. I found the guy that makes them for AFR, Dart, Howards etc. He literally had heads from all of them to check the fit. I have AFR heads and the Hardin valve covers as well, no problems.


Interesting. From my phone I’m unable to see the name on the girdles however they look like a nice piece. Does this guy just make them upon request and sell or is it under a company name. Tks

The set I have are actually labeled Howards Cams. I also use their phenolic carb spacers, I added the tapered 4 hole and it made such an improvement my wife noticed. I also added a 1" open and noticed even more gain. The owner was actually an old time off shore racer himself. They're based in Pontiac, MI, website is: https://jomarperformance.com/

abones passed on their number a bit ago and I called and talked to John. Real neat guy. Gave me cash pick up price. I love it.


I must admit I like the design of the Webster’s better. Is there a cross ref to to a jomar 1114.

Bill (Webster) is very knowledgeable and has always answered any questions.
I am sure he can tell you exactly what you need. 916 635-4233

I’d be careful around Abones, gotta keep an eye that guy 🧐😎

I worked with Bill on the 525 Mercury Edelbrock alum head, I sent him one head and he designed the brackets off of it, very good guy to deal with

I would have to agree but over priced IMO. Very good with very little failures and means a lot to help protect a 20k engine for sure. Definitely worth it but the yella terras have a great track record just not as well known. I want to do a swap on dyno playing with my intake lift to see if it’s worthy of any respectable gains before pulling the trigger on any shaft mount rockers.
