Default New changes at TEA

We have been very busy the last month or so with our stage 1 head as well as other program changes to find even more flow. Currently we are redoing all of our ls6 head programs and developing new ones to work with the ls2 engines.I am sure we will have some good results posted soon!
We have also added on a new sales and production coordinator who is fantastic. His name is Mike and he has over 15 years experience in the high performance industry. I think you will all find his customer service second to none, and that was what we were looking for to fill my position.
Now onto the bad news. Due to personal reasons I am leaving TEA effective immediatly. The good news is I am moving back down south (Chattanooga,TN) before the snow hits. My wife and I have missed our friends in Nooga alot and can't wait to see them all again.
I have enjoyed working with all of you and I have enjoyed working with the best cylinder head porting company in the world.
