I have seen them quite a bit in the Forced Induction section on www.impalassforum.com Keith seems to be fairly decent guy, from what I have noticed for talking to him on that website.

thanks. Have you heard how good of work he does? Also have you heard anything about race proven motors (R.P.M) out of CA there closer to me and looks like they do some nice work.

Mike lee owns R.P.M and does excellent work. He post a good deal over at syty.net and had my 321 SS headers built and did the valve covers to.

That thing is bad ***. Those are the same design headers i was going to go with. i think im going to end up going with rpm there alot closer to me and i have not heard any problems with them and they are resonably priced. are you happy with your headers any complaints.

Theres a huge difference between being "busy" and being an irresponsible *******. Tony straight fucked some guys from what I recall. Mease, all I remember was people waiting forever for ****, which to a degree I understand, I get behind too, but he pretty much lied to people saying things like "Your parts were shipped such and such date", or whatever, when he knew he was lying.
I wouldn't use anyone with that kind of negative feedback, but thats just me. I have a hard enough time with the "good" ones.

If you could pay for them when they shipped like 99% of other businesses do, I bet he'd be more responsive to the customers.
he wanted 1500 down and told me it would be around 3 weeks to get them out. I think im going to go with RPM they do good work and no complaints that i know of and there prices were about the same 2700 for 321 stainless forward swept with v band.
