I don't think it's too much to ask that a company you spend thousands of dollars with to mark either the heads or the invoice with the critical information regarding the heads, which I feel chamber volume as being something that is critical. I don't want to turn this thread into a God damn mess. I received an e-mail back from Phil last night and he stated that the heads were milled to approximately 61cc. I've got plenty of PTV clearance and the car runs great and I'm looking forward to getting the car retuned after the clutch is broken in and then put on the dyno.

Thanks man!!! Yeah, all is good. I can't wait to get some numbers too. I will also take the car to the track to see what et's I can put down and what my trap speed is. Hopefully by then I'll have a wheel/tire setup that will work better at the track than what I have now.

Yes, but they are for sale, so hopefully I can get them sold so I can buy some Billet Specialties Street Lites. I'm looking at the 17x8 17x11 combo.

Break in of the clutch is almost done. Should have the car back for the full tune by the end of the month, then it's off to Kansas City for some dyno pulls.

Which is why I didn't buy from him (and he was #1 on my list for a long time). I'm crazy and that doesn't work for me.

Sorry guys for the delay. Car is going to be re-tuned later this week, so I will have it back by Sunday. I won't have official numbers until I take the car to Kansas City to by dyno'd, which I'm going to try to do the following week. I've been pre-occupied with getting a few things around the house done. On a side note, I adjusted the Tick Master last night and got the clutch pedal dead even with the brake pedal. The car drives sooo much better now without the super long clutch travel. Befor I adjusted it, the damn thing was about 2 1/2 inches higher than the brake pedal, which was driving me crazy.

Dirtbag, after Kent's re-tune, we can run anytime you want to. Your car has been dyno'd and is very similar to my car in terms of mods, so I'd like to see how I stack up against you. At least it will give me a good idea before the official dyno numbers.

Car is being dropped of this Friday for the full tune. Clutch is broke in enough. Not the full 500 miles Monster recommends, but I'm OK with that.

Dirtbag, I really wish I would have stuck around for another 20 or 30 minutes this past Saturday. I'm itching to see and hear your car. It had started raining for the 3rd time since I showed up, so I decided it was time to get the **** out. I'm looking forward to getting a few runs in with you. Have you had the chance to run any of the JC guys?
