But these Prolines, what is the advantage to just buying a big Hemi or something like that ? A Hemi is something that most can relate to, know what brand they are and thus have fans. Are Prolines limited in what classes they can run in ?

Close.. he is building a car and wanted one to race now.. he wanted to "get back in the saddle "
My understanding is he will sell the blue one once the new car is done and gets it together with the CV1 motor... also my understanding money is not a problem... time I believe is... that's why he dropped out of the racing seen... he was building a very successful company.. good for him, smart choice! The guy seems like a class act and will do very well with the new set up I'm sure.

Buddy of mine bought a set form him. They were supposed to be round port ,that were fully ported . Titanium valves etc . Fuller charged him $4500 . What he got was a box stock set of D port with used titanium valves . He them had to take them to a shop in town to fix the valve job and to shave the one head so both combustion chambers were the same.

I’m still at the beach but will be testing at Capitol Raceway this Sunday if you can make it by.
It would be nice to see you again.
Capitol Raceway is in Crofton, MD.
About 3 hours north of VMP.

That was a fun one! Wish the last electrical issue we chased was as easy as that one! We just finished chasing a RF problem that was hair pulling!

That guy is a thief. Known for sand rolling E round ports and charging for a CNC job by AFR. The stories are endless about him screwing people.
