Thanks,

No disrespect to George; but you would be foolish not to make a comparison shop with Keith Craft Racing too. Frankly; I spoke with both of them and Keith was 1000's of dollars less than Mr. Gessford, which kind of gets your attention. Less $ does NOT mean you are giving up any quality. I'd be shocked if he couldn't deliver a lot quicker than 6 months from now, although it won't matter if your roller is not finished. When it came to service and we had some issues to address; Keith hopped on a plane and flew 7 hours from Arkansas to NJ. He got in at 5:00pm and worked till 3:30AM on my motor; took a test run with me the next morning with the "Edelbrock" issues (not KC issues) 100% resolved, and flew back that afternoon. This motor absolutely "screams". BTW: there was no charge for his time and service; just integrity backing up his work. Plug and play.
I've been out of the Cobra and forum loop with family issues for the last 2 months, so I just noticed your post. Getting back into the groove now.
Good luck with it; either way. They are both good motor heads.
