I ran across that site earlier.
I sat down and thought about it....just decided that the only thing I really needed was a good font. The logo doesn't need to be awe-inspiring, just something simple to put on my website and valve covers.

Looks good! Did you think about just "Lykins" by itself on the valve covers? Just thinking out loud. Either way, it looks great and comes down to what you want.

Well the warranty basically says that if it breaks because of something you do or were doing, it's not my fault. If it breaks because of something I did, then it's my fault and I'll fix it. 
Examples of things that aren't my fault:
1. Too much fuel pressure, so that it floods the engine and washes all the cylinders down.
2. Forgetting to put oil in it.
3. Not putting enough oil in it.
4. Throttle linkage sticking and holding the thing at WOT for 5 minutes with no rev limiter.
5. Not letting an all-aluminum engine get up to oil and water temp before you hammer on it.
6. Jacking a car up by the harmonic balancer.
7. Thrust bearing wiped out by incorrect bellhousing/transmission installation.
8. Plumbing an oil cooler backwards.
That's not an all-inclusive list.... 
Race motors that get leaned on 100% of the time really don't get a warranty so to speak. That's why they get hammered on the dyno to make sure that they're right when they leave.

I never take you seriously.....
I was basically responding to Cliff's response with an off-the-cuff attempt at humor....hence the jacking the car up by the harmonic balancer joke. (That happened to an engine builder buddy of mine.) |

Ain't no joke-we used to do that to our 396 Chevelles to open the pipes on Cross Bay Blvd-about a century ago.

What fonts did you used in that logo?
If I have them (or got them easily, I'll get you a vectorized pdf file (transparent background).

I used an online logo maker software to be honest....
They gave me an EPS and a JPG file.
Is it hard to change the colors on the logo? Black letters on a black background don't work too well.... |

Email me the eps, I'll see what I could do.
It should not be difficult to change.
What colors do you want?
