First versions did not work so well and everyone went back the old asymmetric stuff which is why Elite had issues finding heads. No one wanted to release the older asymmetric stuff.


I thought I remember seeing those a few years ago but seemed like know body ran them for some reason. I'm wondering if the valve and port layout was not favorable with lining up to the carb venturies whereas the FI stuff with dedicated injectors is not sensitive to that.

Hey,

Did anyone besides me take that 1/2 Off for NHRA All Access Offer? Well,.. I was bummed to not be able to listen to NHRA with them stopping the Audio broadcast while messing things up in the garage and figured that OK, OK,...... I'll just take the offer and listen if I'm busy I rationalized with Myself to avoid the guilt to spend more money on My addiction. Then the rain out yesterday :-( but sneaking in moments here at Work in the morning that All Access is really neat to watch. Just from the NED Finals broadcast I'm hooked. Indy is going to be really fun to watch with the Hemi Challenge(?) along with the Biggest mph showdown in Super Gas Qualifying. I was skeptical but now I'm a 'Tub Thumper' <-- old time religious zealot.

I got a pushrod from Jack Beckman that was in the motor that blew up on Saturday and he signed it too. I also got a signed piston from Jeff Diehl. Went over today to see eliminations , good to see AJ get to the finals.
