That's not different than you sending old heads to Gaby, Robin decided to start with new castings.

If someone called me today, I would love to charge $7,000.00 for my labor, but in reality, it would be closer to $4k to match the power Robin has made.

You could probably charge 7 grand if you could promise them a 7 second timeslip

How much did your boy Goatracer have in his top end with that big 2 fo intake??

that was a real rocket ship.

That car ran just about as good as yours did @ Norwalk in 2011.

The carbs were a PY deal, the heads and intake with porting was right around $4,500, and I gave him a deal, was my original castings, not pretty being cut on and trashed, but if things wouldn't have went south, would have made for some fun.
