He was still posting on here and I remember his signature line saying 68 Plymouth stock heads 11.30. At that point I was like is that even possible. That was before I knew his reputation.

I think he should come back and share his knowlege with us since the guys who started most of the drama are BANNED!!!!
Yes I think most of the jokers who helped chase him away are gone now and the atmosphere around here has definitely improved. Perhaps a few customers need to help coax him back.

One more vote for Dwaynes' return to posting. I learned a ton from his posts. Dwayne, I hope you read this- TAKE THE BEST AND LEAVE THE REST! You have helped so many, and there are many more that would love to have your input.

If it wasn't for him being on here, I never would have used him and it stinks that others are missing out.......
I made my first connection w/ Dwayne back in 2000 because of Moparts and ten years later he's still getting my $$$ for cylinder head work, valve train components, etc. The Stage VI heads he did for me and his choice of cam have a lot to do w/ how well my 440 Challenger runs. A couple of dyno sessions w/ him were well worth the time, distance & money spent, too.

I just had him do a set of STOCK 906's for me, I'll see how well they run in the spring.

He's never been anything but helpful and friendly to me, not just as a customer but as good guy to bounce ideas off of. I would also vote for a return to Dwayne posting. Unfortunately my vote doesn't count....the only one that counts is Dwaynes Only half the individuals who ran him off with stupidity in the name of "fun" are gone. The other half are still here but suddenly have grown up, and what's even funnier I bet they don't even know they did it.

Dwayne fixed my INDY SR heads after I broke my 499. Did a great job, and had them back when promissed. I too miss reading Dwayne posts. Too bad some A-holes have to ruin a good thing for those willing to learn something.
