Well John, I appreciate your efforts! What did those heads flow if you don't mind me asking? What kind of power did you make with'em?

the first time i went out with the tiger out of the box my car picked up 1 tenth and 2 mph over the highly ported wensler that was with the wensler intake that had epoxy in it to match up the ports. I want to thank Frank and Bob for helping pontiac racers raise the bar! then when we started to change things around we went our fastest with the tigers and a the tre intake thanks ALL PONTIAC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I guess the real question should be -- How many guys can only get 875 to 925 Hp - out of heads that came thru your shop - Im guessing - -No - I know its 20 fold the number that are making 1050 -- so with all do respect to Bob and Frank -- The ingredience that YOU have contributed to this reciept have soured the end result.

Target Horsepower for Tiger Race Ready head pkg is 875-940HP in a high compression engine .The Tiger CNC full port catalogue head has made 1076HP,any one can purchase this head from Allpontiac,Owning the Tiger full port does not guarantee that everyone will make same power and its possible some very knowledgeable people will make even more power with same catalogue head.Bill C.

I'm at 1050hp...540" MR1 w/HP's and Wenzler Gustram...it's in my dads 68 Bird...car is fresh and for sale...if it doesn't sell the motor is going into my 80 Fairmont X275 car w/ a single 4 and 1 kit. I'm thinking it could be a contender to run 4.9/5.0's @ 3150.

i would love to see a pontiac motor in x275 and kick some ass!! 4.9's would be tough for sure but some 5.0's and are defineately possible.

The way i read this, this makes bill look good. All most as if you are saying Bill can make sh*t taste like ice cream. (not calling your stuff sh*t Frank, but you know that)

Not sure how this post should be taken?? is he complaining or complementing?? If he expects a head out of the box to automaticly give power gains eh havnt seen that happen to often. Most heads dont care if CNC'd or not still need some finishing work or more to get optimum performance from my experiance building motors. Dont care if it Chevy,Pontiac,Dodge, etc.. or and Aftermarket company.I really dont look at #'s if a guy states a head will give a HP improvment, cuase it all depends on the total Package. a cylinder head is not a magic wand for HP.
Have had enough customers thru my doors with parts expecting to get a #. and when they dont get pissed. It's the sum of the parts and how they work together. All builders can do when confronted with this situation is make recommendations if the guy supplying the parts dont want the extra work done, then they get what they pay for.

NT...but the motor sounds a helluva lot better than a 540" rat motor w/.880"s lift.

If I run the car, it will mostly likely see an 8.0/.10's without a problem @ 2600lbs. When I built the motor I told KRE I wanted to run 8.0's @ 2600 lbs and this is what they built me.
