Bradholio,
I need you to commit one way or another on the motor/tranny for my car. My funding requisition has been approved (Thanks honey!). You mentioned 2 options. I sent you my orginal motor last year. I need this finished up pronto! I want to do WCC with my new setup. Time to step up to the plate my friend! What do you have to say for yourself??????

the pressure is semi-off him for the parts of my 2.0 that he has (Jake has the other half) since I have my 1.8 temp motor to run for a while....that and I don't think he can do anything until Jake is finished with the stuff....

No pressure. The engine I had didnt have everything in it like I wanted after going over the paperwork. I'll build all the engines in one week once all the pieces arrive. Not much I can do until the pieces arrive. They are basically on schedule with everything that has gone down and the number of engines I sent out.
I want you to have more power... trust me...

Those scat heads are for drag/sprint racing only and even then they don't work good. For T1 racing I'd rather have super-flo's.
I've never been a big fan of Scat stuff.

So Bradholio/Jake can you guys commit to some kind of schedule at this point
. Jake, please don't dangle any more carbbed 2270's less deposit in front of me. I need help!

i want/need heads better than the 2.0 heads for my new motor...i really want watercooled heads and the scat heads seem to be a good starting point for them, if not those, then it's off to making something from scratch
I've got to beat Britains turbo 2.3 HP numbers
Patrick, I'm going to Bradholio's shop tonight, I'll harass him if he doesn't read this today......

Make yer heads from scratch. If you make them from JB weld and tinfoil, they will probably seal better and cool better than the Scat ones...
Do a search on the Shoptalk BBSes for Jake's posts about the Scat heads. Unless you have a lot of time or money to spend having them re-worked, just stay away.

Ahhh Mueller...its on!! I hope you find a good solution to the head problem because it is going to take some balls to beat me!! I have put enough money in this engine, I should have just bought a motor from Jake...lol! My motor better put out some respectable numbers and look nice doing it.
