[vinnybarber]

[chad05gt]

one full year of daily driving and 1/4 mile use; ZERO problems.

Livernois

 

[vinnybarber]

have livernois now. want someone different

 

[chad05gt]

YOU cannot get a 'sponsored set'??

 

[retfr8flyr]

I think the only ones that compare to Livernois are the Fox Lake but I don't think you can get a set quickly.

no not that. i have one thats cracked for second time. don't want to fix again. took one phone call and two emails and day and a half to get called back. need somebody who cares.

 

[chad05gt]

They made you pay full price for both???

 

[MexGT]

that blows Vinny, hope you can get a great set soon !!

 

[vinnybarber]

i have only had one set. when i got mine they were stage3. the stage3r

weren't available then. if i have to fix what i have to make bg then i will.
bes ported them. i am not blaming any one. just need a new set. with the boost i am making i don't think repairing them is the way to go.

Vinny.

Try our Stage 3 heads. We'll give you a great deal on them.

Another vote for Fox Lake

How are you doing on head gaskets? With big boost, Mihovitz was seeing an issue with lifting the heads and came up with this bitchin' O-ring type set-up for the gaskets.

Have you determined how/why the head was cracking?

Sounds like a plan.

"X" heads

 

[Freaknazty]

As ironic as this may sound did you get with jpc vinny ? They have been making stupid power as of lately with those rgr setups ......

Truth be told, the valve train is what matters most in the 'stupid power' applications. Your off-the-shelf springs, their rates, retainers, valves, etc just don't cut it and what you have to address. Cams, porting, etc. in the 3V's really isn't that big of a deal when you get into the 'stupid' levels - especially when you are 'pushing' the power and not 'sucking' it.

The 3V's are damn near impossible to make stupid power on right now. ('stupid' = triple digits) Not impossible (obviously) but damn near...lol

I garuntee you everyone (including me) is keeping tight lipped about what's 'really' involved cause it is extensive to say the least. The Killer is going to own the West Coast next weekend, but I'll say it was a bonafide NIGHTMARE to make this kind of build work on a 3V...

I'm very curious to hear how or why Vinny was cracking the head...

These are our new prototype 3V race head. These have twice the air velocity of our stage 3 ported heads. That is all the information I have on them as of right now. We have more info, I just don't have access to it currently.
