Not trying to derail any new contributions to the Mopar cause, just want to make sure it's legit and not some pipe-dream or scam.

So you want people to pony up $12k for a pair of heads that they know nothing about? Just want to be clear here.

No he wants a bunch of small donations that could hopefully add up to enough money for a prototype set of heads. Usually in crowdfunding cases like this people get perks for being backers. Having a chance to buy the first set, cheaper then retail, etc etc.

To answer the question of producing the head. Minus valvetrain, 12k gets you a set of bare cylinder head(ie cnc machining, valve guides, seats, etc).

So I'm misunderstanding this part?



If several people collectively donate $12k, who is "you" in this....who gets the cylinder head(s)?

Things like this need to be stated clearly...what each person gets in return for the donation, what gets accomplished for the X amount, what still needs to be done before actual working cylinder heads can be shipped out. Sorry if I see red flags...been through this song and dance before.

We need better blocks before better heads.

Quick update, made a little progress today in terms of funding and support with a few individuals offering there services and others who have made financial contributions to the project. I'm hopeful that the progress will continue. I have made some changes to both sites to clarify how funds raised will be used.

In gauging everyone's feedback it seems as though I have missed the mark with the perks I've offered in exchange for any contributions. I really thought it would've been an opportunity for people to let their voice be heard by giving their input. Definitely my mistake. So, I will let you guys decide on a new perk to add to the project in addition to what's available so I look forward to your input in that regard.
What do you think? Highest bid gets the final cylinder head assembly and trademark naming rights?

Also, I want to clarify that any contribution amount will be accepted. 25cents, $1, $5, or whatever. Any of those contributions give you an opportunity to get involved. Indiegogo kind of makes that confusing since it is formatted to show one value to receive the perk. That however is not the case. Please follow suit with the ranges that are posted on the website. Upon making a contribution, I will send an email to you to record your vote.

So far its a toss up between the Wedge Configuration #2 and the Canted Configuration #2.

Again, thanks everyone for the kind words and support, its very much appreciated!

Lastly, I want to make it very clear that I have no intentions of maximizing a profit margin with these heads. If these heads make it to market, I plan on offering them at the cost of making the part with little to no profit margin. At most maybe 1% of the total. I believe its much more important to try to make these cylinder heads as accessible as possible than worry about turning a profit. I know, I know, its not a smart business decision, I'm crazy, its naive, etc etc.

Well, then call me crazy, but I feel that a stock block, wedge head with maybe a BBC exhaust port setup would be great for a(soon to return)weekend racer like me. I would like to be able to get hold of a decent header kit like hedmans that I can assemble to work with a modified front end, on a reasonable budget. I don't really need the expense of Kook's, World, Lenco, etc. Just want to go a little faster and have fun without the cost of a Prostock.
