I emailed him and got a response very quickly. Lloyd is a very stand up guy and I'm sure he wouldn't do it on purpose. Keep trying, or just e-mail him.

Keep trying because he is a great guy and his work is awsome. He is a very busy guy. You won't be unsatisfied if you end up using him.

There are some good vendors to the right of the screen and are sponsors on this board. I would check around before I make any decision, or you WILL regret it. Advance Induction also makes a good product. Just remember, you get what you pay for. My heads were ported by a guy named Eric Bradby. The same guy who ported Joe Overton's heads You can see the times in my sig with stock castings. It was also very affordable. Sometimes the "best bang for the buck" doesn't equate to quick ETs. PM me if you need any further info. Good luck,
James

pm him or email him, its hard to take calls when you have 10 sets of heads needing to be ported. He does the best work, if you want quality then he is your man.

The later part of that is better advice than the first. Just because they have a little vendor image on the side doesn't necessarily mean you are going to come out on top.

MEGALDON,

if you are Felix, I called back 3 times and left messages that you can reach me easiest between 6 and 9 PM Central time. I believe I have reached everyone else that has called.

I have been so swamped that I focus on porting through out the day and must ignore the phone until after 6 PM. This allows me to get ALOT more work done.

I get 10-20 calls a day and if I answer them and spend 10-25 minutes on each call, a 10 hour work day can turn into a 6 to 8 hour work day. This keeps the turn around time at 3 to 4 weeks and also allows the prices to stay where they are.

I can be reached but it is easiest by email or by phone after 6 PM.

Lloyd

Coincidentally, there are people who are shying away from transactions with you, Felix. Please make good to your original word. Do the right thing, brah:
