I bought my set from here, https://angeluccimfg.com/ , they are local to me, and have been in the business for many many years now. They told me they sell to Mancini and to a number of engine builders. I am very pleased with my set , high quality and and a great looking set.

John has pulled down his shingle. I know this for sure because there is a LARGE amount of his parts and shop stuff in my shop floor at the moment. I use and sell the purple stands all the time. Never had any issues. Made in Wisconsin if that matters to you. Todd Todd,that means alot to me! It says made in the USA in the add.

[quote=sasquatch]That would be for John to say. He had done the engine/hemi thing for a long time and he just thought it was time to enjoy his life a little more. Todd
Did John manufacture his own stuff? Why would he maintain a wesite???

I have the Dvorak stands on my SS/ba dart clone. I went with them because being an a body there isn't a lot of room to work in the engine bay. Also liked the idea of being able to pull the shafts without disturbing the head bolts. Cost was close to a grand and I think I got them in 07 or 08. I've never had any issues related to them, but remember that they are offset some from normal. Dan will help you, when you can get in touch with him. My car is a cruiser and I have put about 10000 miles on it since 2010

I tried to by those from Dvorak a few yrs back. It was at a bad time for him with Health & Divorce issues and couldn't get a set. So I bought the aluminum ones, a thin cutter, & a hemi friend machinist cut'm. I'd rather had the steel saddles but these are doing fine at 4500 miles. Also,...heard the beehives ain't as good as originally thought, but haven't noticed any issues yet. So you cut them,drilled a hole through them and studded them? That's nifty,never saw anyone do that before!

I've currently ran mine with comp beehives for about 2500miles but my cam is pretty small. Everything is stable at 7000rpm too (accidental overrev).
