One correction with some facts:
He is not a new member. He changed screen names.

See here: http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/m...t-foxwell.html

His 26 posts have been all erased for some reason.

Seems like you have more than enough hands on experience with engines , definitely more so than I, and think you are perfectly qualified to discuss your experiences with cylinder heads here. No more, or no less, than most who post here. Therefore, i look forward to hearing what you have to say about this topic, just as i do the other engine builders who have chimed in. I personally dont care about agendas or who doesnt like you. I will determine whether or not you post good info, or bullchit, and form my own opinion of you. And until now, i personally havent seen you post anything on the other forums, that make you appear to be a "con man, scam artist, piece of trash, or whatever has been said here ".

As for others, i cannot speak of what it is they want out of this forum. Some believe what they want to believe, who they want to believe, and that will never change
Thank you sir. We'll see how long this lasts.

My 26 posts were never posted. It was kind of interesting...I could see them on my screen as if they had been posted, but no one else could, so I stopped.

Actually, people could see them, how else would they have quoted them ?
See here for example:
http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/g...-advice-2.html

So...how and why did your posts disappear ?

Stop derailing every thread and just post information pertaining to the title

Other members can make their own decisions on which info they choose to take into account on their own projects

Or go sit in your non running boat and make noises

I'm not interested and you need to stop.
And yes, I did the work on Kevin's heads.
mr foxwell,i don,t know you and until today i never heard of you so why you believe i am trying to discredit you is a mystery to me.i will say that after your childish posting i now can see why you might not be very well liked.you say that you are done responding to me,great because i would rather you don,t .

Mike your ruining your own thread so I guess you don't really care about learning anything...

And it's common knowledge that you do business with Bob so yes you have an agenda

Every thread ? Please.

You brought him back here, which he had to make a new screen name for so he could post again.

My boat runs great btw.

I did, however, sit on my sled last week-end and pretend to be riding that in the upcoming snow, while making Braap, Braap noises ! And yeh, that runs too.

Thanks for asking and being concerned !

BTW: Start another thread on your dry sump system and ask for opinions if you should have open breathers or sealed off valve covers.

BTW#2: You poked me first.

I run Brodix BB3 XTRA - O s. They have worked well for several years.

I bolted on a set of used heads, from a pontiac 400, on my pontiac 400 20 years ago. I ran it like that for a year, then junked the car.

It was a success. Not sure i would call it the right way to do things, but it worked.
