Don,
Will there be cars racing at Norwalk with your new V heads as well as actual heads and intake for all to view?

Don...do you have a spot picked out or potluck. Be nice to put you up next to customer service building... If I ever buy new heads they will most likely be RAV's...Like my Tiger's but Siamese exh ports get hot...

Unfortunately there will not be any running this year at Norwalk. We tried really hard to get something together, but the cards didn't fall right this year. We have 2 engines going together right now and hope to have some dyno results before the end of this year. Keeping my fingers crossed !!! Just not enough hours in a day LOL.
It's going to be pot luck for me. I cannot leave the shop until Friday morning. The plan is to try to get my golf cart there so I can run around with a couple of castings and will probably set up in Danny Estep's pit if he doesn't care.

Don, as you stated, you will have the NEW RAM AIR V Heads bare castings and maybe some intakes too on display at Danny's pit location. To better help out your new customers, could you maybe restate your specs on the heads and the pricing for them, whether it is at Race Track price vs order price, etc. Thanks again, as this is an exciting time to build our own dream engine with High End quality parts that will perform as well.

Danny, I'm sorry I totally missed the comment about Jennifer sleeping on the floor. I call BS on that!!! You should have been the one on the floor not Jen LOL. You have one heck of of a good woman if she will put up with that.
I just wanted to say thanks to everyone that has called and ordered a set of heads so far. I was a little worried about selling any, but after the last week that worry has passed. THANK YOU !!!! I will still have plenty of heads to bring to Norwalk too. So please everyone come on by Danny's pit and say hello. I am trying to get banners made so everyone will see where we are. I am going to have T-shirts for sale as well this weekend XL and smaller $17.00, XXL $20.00.

Don, your machined NEW RAM AIR V Heads are looking great! As we are getting closer to Norwalk weekend, Do you know what day you are planning on having Your booth and the Ram Air V availble to see and Purchase? Also will you be posting that stats of the heads as offered for sale? Will you have an 'AT RACE TRACK" price vs order price? Are you taking names of people for your NEW Intake Manifold that interfaces with your New RAM AIR V Heads? I know of (2) people that are looking for intakes to go along with the sets of heads that (they/we) are planning on purchasing from you. I am Looking forward to looking at your heads with Jim Robertson, as he will be porting and setting up (2) Sets of your NEW RAM AIR V Heads. Lastly, are you planning on working with Mark at Maddog Headers, for exhaust header options to interface with your new heads? Thanks in advance, as I for one, as well as many others have been very much looking forward to seeing, touching, and purchasing for many, their DREAM Cylinder head that they want to see on their Pontiac engine whether stock like, street bruiser, to all out BLOWN Race engine.

Hi Rick, I am going to actually have an intake for everyone to see this weekend.The foundry just called and said they are overnighting one to me and I will have it by 8:30 tomorrow morning. It will not be machined yet, but I will have one there. So that means I will be getting there a little later than I first hoped, but better late than never. As for headers, I am definitely working with Mad Dog on several different models to cover most applications. I just got the header flanges so now I can start to build the prototypes for him. He did offer to build them for me, but I am a little anal and want to make sure everything clears okay.
As for pricing. The only discount I can offer right now is $150.00 off the $3499.00 price for cash customers. I am absolutely astounded by the response I am having and think that my first run of heads is going to be sold out this weekend. Believe it or not I have already sold about half of the first run already. THANK YOU to all that have purchased them already!!!! Don't worry Rick, I have 2 sets saved for you.

WOW is all I can say. I had no idea how many people have been watching the progress of my new DCI ram air 5 heads. First of all I want to thank each and everyone of you who purchased my heads this weekend. I really need you guy's so that I can continue to bring more high end products to market for the traditional Pontiac enthusiast. I also want to say thanks to everyone who came by and introduced themselves and said hello. I cannot begin to tell everyone how much I appreciate their support and kind comments. It has been a long hard journey getting these heads to market and having all of you come by and show your support means an awful lot to me. I would love to mention everyone here, but honestly I don't think I have enough time, space and memory bank to do it. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH !!!!!!
I was so busy all weekend that I did not even get to take any pic's.I only got one picture myself with the back of my Suburban open and I will post it when I get it down loaded. So if anyone took pictures, please feel free to post them.

Hello Don, I wanted to TRULY thank you for all of your GREAT efforts to make your DREAM as well as the Pontiac Community's Dream a REALITY!!! I know the set of heads that I bought as well as my friend Don from Saginaw, bought from you on Saturday, will soon be on their way to Mr. Jim Robertson! He will be doing his magic on the heads to extract out even more performance from your already Great NEW RAM AIR V Head.
Everyone can't wait for the intakes to be finish machined to go along with the wonderful heads!! Everyone can't thank you enough, as many a dreams have been waiting for this day, when now the masses can build their own version of what a RAM AIR V engine may look to them.![]() ![]()

Big Bear and Rick, Thanks for posting pic's of the heads and intake. I was so busy all weekend talking with everyone. I did not have time or even think about taking pic's. If anyone else took pic's please post them for everyone to see. As for head sales let me just say I did way better than I expected to. When these guy's get their projects completed we are going to see some very impressive combo's. All the way from street engines to all out race engines. Something that made me really happy and excited are the amount of guy's wanting to run Top Sportsmen and Dragster. Pontiac Motor Division may be gone, but the EXCITEMENT is not!!!!!! The traditional Pontiac enthusiast is gaining steam and are true diehards.
