Wow. I’m getting tired of people trying to talk Bro out of the cathedral heads and into LS 7s. Geeesh. lol. I cant wait. To see what it puts down. I just hope the builder doesn’t screw up this new engine too

My focus is different as listed here.
No one can talk me out of the the heads Tony and I have chosen.
The builder never screwed up anything.
If he had his way it would have been different.
It would have been so simple if I had taken a more simple approach and left everything alone like he wanted.
Also things can happen too that are out of your control.
It is a learning curve and I'm not repeating that same mistake again.

I originally had 243 castings on my LS2.
I made a big mistake by listening to someone and getting rid of them and going to a set of LS3 ported heads.
I wanted to cnc my stock castings originally because I was happy with them but just wanted more power everywhere.
These would have worked well on my 408 actually I believe.
But anyway, such is life
These AFR's will be much stronger everywhere compared to the 243's.
So all is good.

They should work better on the larger engine for sure.
You will notice it but being a 440 it would be fine.

Yep, I was a kid, but I caught the end of the cards and feeding tape era. if it didn't take, you fed the whole tape again.

I thought to write a post here in regards to my experience so far with Tony.
I have to say this man has given me the best customer service I have ever had.
With fast and detailed responses, and constant updates or changes on any aspect of the build there is always an email waiting to be read.
He is fully invested in this build and the energy in the air has positive vibes.
Not to mention the discounts I received on the package deal which was very generous.
No one comes close to Tony in communication and having great products on top of that is just the icing on the cake.
It is a good idea to appreciate that Tony was an engineer at AFR and is sharing his knowledge on these forums for us to learn for free.
He knows heads better than anyone and no one at that level really posts on this forum anymore except for him.
To have constant communication from someone as dedicated and as passionate as Tony is a rarity.
Hell, sometimes I think Tony is more excited about my build than I am!
As many of you know Tony and I have exchanged countless emails for a long time and even back then his responses were still so detail orientated.
This shows me that he is passionate about his business and products and loves what he is selling.
Plus it's a positive reflection of his character.
To top it off he has several records with his combos making the most power and the competition is very fierce out there.
Being in business myself I have met many people of different personalities.
If you find someone who is exceptional and genuine in what they do, respect them and show appreciation.
Remember, what you dish out, one day it will come back to you.
