With Spohns line of thinking should we take a set of new Trick Flow or AFR heads apart when we get them to make sure everything is right?

Lol recheck the runner length and combustion chamber and also check spring pressures, BUT DON'T put them on the Dyno because it will create stress on the valvetrain lol
What a joke!
Unfortunately lilj it won't get fixed anytime soon bud, I got a kid in college and 3 more I gotta support plus the wifey plus the mortgage on a popo salary=hurry up and wait!

Just from reading some of the responses, I won't be buying anything Spohn in the future. Instead of taking care of the customer, companies end up screwing themselves in the long run when word like this gets around.

Good luck with getting the car fixed. Hope it puts up some strong numbers!

At least the driveshaft would make a good "tool" to pound some sense into these NATO protestors.

Little update, I got the Trans in around 4th of July weekend (thanks to Chris1313) it put down 510hp and 495tq. It's not a daily driver so I drove it around last year and brow her in good. Last month I took it in for a Lil tuning cause it was asking for a lil fuel here and there and with the motor broken in it laid down 545/525 TQ on straightline's Mustang dyno. Made me happy! Now I can't wait for some slicks and skinnies and I'm hitting the track this fall for some good air.
