Default Some People Don't get it

CSX 4027 and Steel Comp, the doors to our shop are open anytime you want to come look around. I can't help it that you can not make any horsepower with an FE engine.
I guess you need to check the NHRA national records and you will see our name beside about 8 records with FE engines and I believe none with yours. You people beat anything I have ever seen. We do not inflate dyno numbers and SuperFlow can vouch for this since they have been here during our testing and checked the dyno.
If you add compression and a roller camshaft you can make 850HP with the FE heads we do. We are so far ahead of you guys on cylinder head developement it is not even funny. You show how little you know about FE engines with your statements. How do we have customers running 8.30 at 160 in the quarter mile in a 2600lb car with out making 800HP. You guys must not get out much and look at how fast some of these FE guys are going now.
There is nothing wrong with dyno sheets we provide and we can provide the other information as well to our customers but most do not need or want that information. If you have good cylinder head flow you can have a VE over 100 percent we do it all the time. Most of you guys do not have good cylinder head flow so you do not get good VE numbers.
Why don't you two guys get on an airplane and come visit?Maybe you can teach us a few things. I guess having the fastest FE's in the country doesn't mean anything.
All I can tell you is that our customers who have other engines and then get our engines know they make a lot more power and that is all that matters. Since you also sell engines you need to worry about your customers and not mine. I am sorry you can't handle the numbers our engines produce. Sounds like sour grapes to me.
