Maybe its assembly error by some of the pro engine builders.

Maybe its the springs supplied by afr on his "custom" heads he gets machined especially for marine endurance applications. You know, the same ones that you can get from any afr dealer with a inconel valve upgrade.

Maybe its the builders secretly sabatoging the builds to make him look bad

Maybe its the cam companys fault

Maybe its the lifter companies fault

Maybe its the brand of oil used

Maybe its the block isnt thermally stable

Maybe its a big scam to put him out of business .

Maybe its the lifter bore clearance again.
You forgot Obama.

As I have said in multiple places, I and others I know have bought a ton of parts from Bob ( with ZERO issues), but that does not include cams.

I don't believe that I have ever told anyone to buy a custom cam. I very well may have told someone to call Bob if they had a question on multiple parts including cams. I also highly doubt that there is any post from me defending him, as there has never been a need to. If you think I'm getting in the middle of this thread and saying any opinion, you are sadly mistaken.
With the amount of backpeddaling seems you and BHB must not be locked in a 69 embrace any longer.. progress

what back pedeling are you talking about? Find a link to back up the BS you are trying to pedal.

Do you think if you say the same BS enough times it will come true? Your middle name must be hillary.

Nah, this one is the therapeutic venting chit show. That googler dude started another thread for data and folks are respecting that as it should be.

My big annoyance with MK is all the friggin hoops he had me jumping through, flow benching etc, thinking that I was doing legit due diligence when it was just a ruse to cover his lack of experience.

I'm only here because your friend chose to bring me and my board into this thread 1000+ posts in. Your engine issues are yours not mine.
