Two years for a set of heads. Wow, a killer set of street heads takes me about 30 hours to do, the real crazy ones say 60 hours tops with manifolds welding and any other gunk, So if ya average out to say a week per set, 2 years would be about a 100 set back log, man if I was THAT busy I could quit my day job.  |

Been waiting/stroked for one full year on paint (just to get started, not done!). Told I was on the "short list" for months.... Yet, the number of people I talk to that are a head of me seems to be growing all the time. I guess my money/project isn't good enough, shame. There's a lot of other painters out there, no sense banging my head against the wall, or wasting my time, and (theirs) any longer.

With the long wait time on these highly detailed, handmade ports, is it any wonder why the CNC heads have sold so well? I know quality takes time, and you can get ports specifically crafted for your components for peak TQ/HP, but it's awefully nice to be able to get something that WILL work right out of the box!
The legendary "Mark Herbert" (RIP) built a 200HP engine with a set of "out of the box" CNC wedgeports.
