Missed on this combo?

Years ago I used to buy three magazines every month religiously--then I got a dyno--then I stopped buying magazines. Coincidence?

Back in the 90's I was smart enough to print and keep some of the claimed flow charts from porting stock iron heads from Hughes. The big block heads were note worthy and hilarious. I haven't looked at them in years but I remember BIG flow numbers like 330 or 340+. I didn't know **** from shinola (to be fair I still don't know what shinola is) and ate it up--just like I did with the BigMouth's.

I am the very example of that poor guy in the quote. I build engines for a living ! It hurts when you scrimp and save and plunk out $3500+ on some super duper heads only to find out your 9 year old daughter could probably port better on a stock set of Eddy's--for free.

Mike I told you WAY WAY back that your heads are the issue. J.Rob

I don't think it's your or anyone's fault for buying heads like the big mouth. Even if you take their numbers with a LARGE grain of salt. It's still worth while to check them out and see how they do. You can never know what something really does, without trying it yourself. I don't consider it money lost. You shouldn't either. Consider it money spent on research. I think it's money well spent. If it prevents your customers and others from making the same mistake. And it only helps boost your credibility.

So thank you. For spending your hard earned dollars to see if those heads would work for guys like us. I truly appreciate it.
