Mar 19, that is a good day! My birthday and wedding anniversary! Looking forward to some dyno numbers on the heads comparied to the best cast heads. Thank you for all your hard work and best of luck with the finished product. Got my copy of the EMC Mag today and can only imagine what Ted's engine would have done with a set of these heads.
