This is like a therapy or support group I pulled all the way to LFest and cracked my passenger side head for the second time and coincidently it was on my second pass. I can't tell you how much money I had tied up in those things but I can't trust them anymore.....gotta start over

I know what you mean, I have had the 1MM over sized valves installed, performance valve job, and heavely ported intake and exhaust ports. There is only 1/16th of an inch between the itake port and the injector port. Only now to find out the cam bearing surface is gaulded. The price I hear to repair that is almost the same as new heads minus the porting job and valves.

Thats OK cuz I know God will provide!

Thanks, I had a well know master engine builder do my heads here in
Mi. The heads have 125K on them it just seems that bad luck always happens when your tight for cash.

Thanks Guy's, one thing I have faith in is my God! I help many and ask for little so I know he will show me the way!

When I set out on this oddesy, I knew that the road would be bumpy!

I didn't want what I have often referred to as cookie cutter set-ups. I researched for about 6 month and e-mailed many of you a couple of years ago on you all's set ups. With all the info I gathered I set up to build the beast I have now. Though I have not made a single pro race yet I have faith that when it happens I will step in the ring and hold my own.

With those thoughts I have fueled myself through the tuff times, so hats off to all of you who have helped me with your advice and your own research data.

Most of all hats off to Charles Warner from Magnum Powers for all their help and sponsorship they have gave me.

Johnny & Sue at JLP for there tech help and for fronting me parts when I was down on my face.

Many thanks to Jim & Julie at JDM for their tech help and fronting me parts when I needed.

Many thanks to Sal & Lisa for their tech help and for recently taking an interest in my truck and for offering to help me get my tune right.

With all these people believing in me I consider myself already a winner!

See you all next season!

Peace,

Suavy
