wow, nice! FINALLY!!!
I will have to wait a bit and see some comparissons and dynos. I hope they are much better than the edels. I am glad they are coming out, I was hoping they would be out by the time I started my build, but they are out early so that will give me time to see some results.
Thanks for the update.

You don't have to wait, anything AT Francis does has been tested, evaluated, re-evaluated, then built. His castings are the best.

Any sort of comparissons to edelbrocks?
Also, what is the deal with the race heads? do you have a price range? also details?
Thanks!

If you want the latest info on FE cyl head and engine technology talk to Keith Craft. I think he's on the east coast...he's definately the guy to beat when it comes to FE's. He uses Edelbrock castings, does his own CNC porting, and gets 400/300 out of some of them. He's gettiing some serious HP out of his pump gas motors...I was very skeptical, but after talking to him, he's the real deal. The new FE blocks that are available are allowing 500+ FE inches, as well, and good for 1500hp. Pricy, but for the weight savings over a BB Chev or a 385 Ford, it could be seriously worth it.

Keith is good guy, builds some nice engines. As far as comparisons I can't make that call. Both are good companies. I can say this though, I have never had a customer unhappy with a Blue Thunder head. Not one.
