Been little over two weeks, Brian at Texas Speed said probably another week, thats liveable. Waitings the hard part, loosing traction in thrid is the easy part to wait for. But did get oil pump and everything else very promptly

That IS a lot of heads. Guess there are going to be some major winter projects going on!

We started 24 hours this past monday.I had to start this to keep up.I also have ported heads for the Ford 4.6,GM Ecotec (4Cyl),Ford Focus (4 Cyl),and GM SB2 for the circle track guys.I am in the middle of my aluminum 23deg head for the small block chevy,and I am working real close with Saturn Motorsports with their Sport Compact Pro Fwd Drag Car.I will have everything smoothed out in a couple of weeks where heads will ship fast.

Do you ever get to sleep Terry? I had to wait 2 months for my old Brownfield Heads to be reconditioned and revalved, three-four weeks is a cake walk.

I am waiting, but I would rather have it done RIGHT in 4 weeks, than get it in 2 weeks and not be perfect.....
I am excited about these things and can't wait to strap these bad boys on. Terry is going to sign my heads for an extra $25
, ok I am just kidding about the sig....

I guess you'd have the first set of "Terry Wilkes Signature Series" heads!! Doesn't another porter have a signature series?
