ddnspider, out of curiosity what did Felber do or not do that left a negative outcome for you? I'm not trying to defend him for whatever happened between you two, I've just done business with him more than once and haven't had a negative experience myself.

I have several examples from years ago when he was more known as to why I wouldn't recommend him. Some of it played out on this site to the point moderators and other sponsors got involved. The threads are long since disappeared. Last I knew he retired and I have no ill will towards him, just wouldn't recommend him and would rather not rehash the history on here.
PS....the OP was around during that time and knows what happened, hence his response. I didn't say anything he doesn't already know. Like I said, if you had a good experience with him congrats....and like you said, everyone has their own opinion.

Matts was unable to meet the surface roughness spec we called out 20-30 RA (surface roughness spec for aluminum block, aluminum head with MLS head gasket).
He was also very rude by calling my coworker an "idiot" in a voicemail he left me. My coworker would run circles around that guy. My coworker and I both design engines and fuel systems for a living as mechanical engineers (both have masters degrees) and have many years experience. The fact was that, Matt couldnt hit our spec as promised and probably felt dumb.

It is very easy to measure CC volume using a drug store medicine syringe(like to give liquid syrup to infants), a piece of scrap plexi, spare spark plug, and some vaseline.
If you really wanted to know the actual amount milled and not just the CC volume, by comparing the volume you get to a factory chamber, then using a .xxx" mill = 1 cc reference(usually .005-.006" per 1cc volume reduction, but double check for your specific heads) you can determine how much deck was physically milled off.
