RE: [ISTA] Vortec Conversion

Yes we do Richard ,,,everyone needs to realize just how big a job it is to 
do these heads on their own...and then what kind of results they will have 
when finished...It is a bigggggggggggg job ..Also these heads flow around 
240 unported not the 260 that is being reported> To get to the 270 plus 
range requires a whole lot more work....Jerry McCoy
