Nope, but 3V heads that are hand crafted, ported, and customized down to bulbing the guides & flow 350+ cfm...:leghump:

They can call them whatever the fuck they want - :hi:

They can be type 'shit' heads and I'd still send the check in a minute...:beer:

Ok, time for me to ask the stupid question, what is bulbing the valve guides?

Well it's good you stop jugging and got the parts coming to you. How soon do you think you'll have it back in the car?

Think of it as making glass. Now picture regular guides - straight cylinder shape. Now think of air and flow and aerodynamics. Now, take away the cylinder shape...:beerdrink:

Maybe, but you have no idea how much shit I get for doing so. Hell, the stuff I've learned over the last month from the true 8 sec club contradicted a lot of the shit I believed.

Perhaps I will see how long I can hold out...:LMAO:

Hey Mark......it's also called "teardroppping" the guides. Guess it depends on what part of the country you're from. Them thar Yankees up yonder shore do talk funny so I reckon they jis had to come up with some newfangled fancy word since teardroppin' was already bein' used down here.

When you look down into the guide from the valve seat you will see that the guide is shaped like an ordinary light bulb. The other term is teardrop shape. Same thing.

You say tomato, I say tomato, but, yeah - that's exactly it. Truth be told, Teardropping is what I have known them as well and the 'bulb' term was the first time I've heard it from Livernois. I honestly thought for a minute that maybe they had something different but , yeah - seems like just a new coin word...:beerdrink:

Yup. I am interested in seeing these things once you have them. I'm intrigued enough to pick up the die grinder again. And let me tell you......that takes a lot of doing. :beer:
