at that particular race, out of 11 cars, #8 and #11 had MCH port design. top 5 cars had my head design, and 4 had my intake. I raced for several years, and had results to back up what I said before I voiced my opinion. The proof is in the pudding as they say, the guy in detroit that has never done a burnout (although he knows a few) will fade away from the limelight, and one fast customer (houser) will not pay the light bill.
Like I said, nothing would make me happier than for him to buy wilkes car, I heard 6 months ago how jim keyes was going to come to indy and show the way, I am still waiting for that prediction to come true. Like I told him 4 years ago, port heads and leave the engine building to people who have a clue.
