5.3 Stage II Complete (with bolts and gaskets)
7/25/04
Want order cancelled (started process with Credit Card company to reverse charges) - have left email message to this effect, though no response from vendor regarding it. Voicemail full for past 2 months, so I haven't talked to him directly or been able to leave a mvoice message. I assume he knows.

Just to update: my CC company reversed the charges for me quickly and I've purchased AFRs. No word from Jay on the matter.

Michael Kutchey
Macomb, Michigan
Ordered: Stage-II LS6 Heads, complete & assembled. Details: Milled .020", Stage-II int/exh porting, 2.02 / 1.57 REV valves, Comp 978 dual-springs, titanium retainers. Target was for ~225cc intake runner volume, flow #'s 300+cfm at .550"+ lift.

When: 7/04, paid in full (personal check). I provided LS6 (243) heads as cores.

Desired outcome: Order to be fulfilled that meet Jay's strict quality, performance, & appearance requirements.....hopefully by end of January. Most importantly is to be kept informed of their progress & a realistic ETA on when they will arrive.

Alternative (if my order cannot be fulfilled): Refund ($1250) + LS6 Heads returned --or-- cash-equivalent refund for Heads ($2150 total).

Thanks!!!

Ordered 5.3 heads in July knowing there would be a wait. I last emailed Jay September 27 and received a timely response. I haven't tried to contact him since then. I'm not in any hurry as long as I know the heads are still on tract to be delivered in the near future.

Hi Jay.

I have sent you a few emails, which I have not heard back from.


Here is a simple question which I hope you can answer for me. On the heads you did for us, my understanding was the heads shipped with 977 springs. The heads were taken apart (more on that later) and the springs are most definitely not 977s. Honestly I have no idea what springs they are.

I'd like to know, as when they were checked they had 180# closed, and 480# open. I have no clue what they are, and what they are for. So, any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for helping us all with this John, you went out of your way in this matter. As for Jay at ASSolute Speed he is a very bad businessman and in my eyes has taken advantage of his customers by using our $$$s to advance his company, kind of like a loan from all of us that he does`nt have to pay back until he feels like it. He used our $$$s to open his new shop a couple months ago and yet has owed most of us heads, engines,parts for over 6 months, and he would`nt contact any of us because he knew what he was doing was wrong. I`m glad I got my $$ back from my cc company but unfortunately some people who sent him parts or heads might be out of luck. Best of wishes for the rest of you guys,
Dave
