Besides the five known port development guys, there is three others not listed here, who are working on the R&D of the Pro Port head. There's some chuckling going on about the supposedly spark plug placement issue.

If you truly understood how serious preignition is you wouldnt be chuckling! Do YOU want to layout that kind of $$$$$ knowing you might be taking a chance? Want someone to chuckle with your money???
Isnt it better to get things corrected before proceeding further?
Dont care who designed this head, ports it or whatever, if you can avoid a risk why take it???
View it in another way... what benefit is having the plug and tip so close to the exhaust valve seat??? If there is a benefit, does it outweigh the risk?
Knowlegible people have concerns. Including people involved in cylinder head design.
Yes some concerned have competing product to sell.
Would you rather have them sit back and chuckle when someone nukes a motor to a preignition event?
This
aint detonation your playing with. Diesels detonate all day long, they arent likely to live through a preignition event let alone a race motor.
I think most of us in the Pontiac community care far more about fellow Pontiac'rs and Pontiacs first more so than Edelbrock or products from Edelbrocks competitors within our own community.
The problem finders arent calling our newborn ugly. They're telling us it has a few birth defects!
Quit with the political view crap. If theres a technical issue that can be addressed BEFORE a product gets released lets get it resolved or other means to move forward.
This shouldnt be a "whip it out" contest!
And as far as something has been done and gotten away with successfully goes, it doesnt gaurantee you will the next time.
