You ask for things that you cannot comprehend. You are a glutton for punishment. Its entertaining though.

Maybe you can name a few? They have done great things for pontiac apparently, I'd like to learn what they are exactly.


Did Gaby ever get an intake made for pontiac by Wilson all those years he worked for them? That would be a good *example*

I will put my stuff up against Darin's stuff any day. Or any ones. Not to sound cocky, I just would. I know I will not look dumb. In fact I think sometimes I would come out on top and sometimes I would not.

Just had some of Darin's stuff in the shop/ I made some changes. bet it goes faster.
Got some CFE stuff here to for some changes, bet that goes faster too.
But who is to say that that is their best stuff ? I don't think it is. In fact im sure its not.

The point being Tom said they have done so much for ''pontiac'' which means pontiac people as a whole, the masses, 1 or 2 guys a year if that is hardly a benefit to the pontiac masses.

I know what you do, and to be honest you're probably the best tig welder I'v ever seen, so you deserve credit for that at least.

If you've never attempted to make a 1000 hp then yes that is correct, but I say we do it our first try, how many can say that? How many tries and years did it take everyone else?

Well world famous John Marcella thinks it will make 1100+, so ok? The bigger the engine the bigger the demand for everything, I think it makes it harder not easier.Particularly with a lame duck pontiac
