That’s probably half of his potential customers right there.
Basing his opinions about the PY forum members comments and opinions on his new offerings using information from second or third hand sources and then criticizing the PY forum community for expressing their opinions and concerns might not be the best approach.
My only criticism was they’re not going to look enough like a factory head for those who are looking for heads that closely match the look of OEM Pontiac heads. Not saying they’re not a good product in any way.
People who were hopeful that they’d look like real RAII or RAIV heads or whatever D-port flavor they’re interested in aren’t ever going to get what they’ve been wishing for. It’s easy to understand that nobody is going to the expense to make different molds for each particular head, there’s no profit in that clearly.
You have guys here thinking somehow that they’d have to be priced substantially below the current aluminum offerings from KRE or Edelbrock. Ain’t gonna happen guys, simple economics. So there goes that pool of potential customers who weren’t the target to begin with.
Again I’m sure they’ll be a well engineered part and an asset to the hobby.
Just because people have legitimate questions and concerns or share their opinions good or bad about a new product doesn’t make them haters.
