Eric,
Why don't you take some of your hard earned cash and try for yourself. The adjectives were used to explain a poor product. History has a way of showing superior products. They rise to the top like cream. Dove has been making FE stuff for years. Why did the edelbrock heads blow them away? Why did the edelbrock manifolds blow them away? The reason is they are a quality product. They don't leak and are reliable in every way. If Jim Dove's products were so wonderful everyone would run them. I was so close to laying down the 11,000 grand. I instead invested the money in my Kirkham. David's products are gorgeous. The machining quality in the Kirkham's is like artwork. Jim Dove would own the market if he had simliar quality products. The fact is he doesn't. I work too hard for my cash to gamble on his poorly machined products. Look at the referenced posts for pics of his stuff. I'm sorry if my adjectives were offensive. They are in fact true. The problem with this site is people are not apt to trust reviews. There are a lot of skeptics. With a product of this cost I would rather have someone show me and prove it's quality before I buy. The amount of negative posting in conjunction with the lack of ONE positive critique is disturbing. I spent $65,000 on a Kirkham without ever actually seeing one. Why? Extensive review only showed one neg post about the thin powder coating. This has been fixed every other post over the last 5 years have been positive. When my car arrived I was even more impresssed seeing it in the flesh! Anyway, the poor machine and quality leads me to the adjective of JUNK once again. Please if someone out there runs these motors successfully let us know!!!!!!!!!
