Hi Scott, it's made by a crotchety old man here in the states named Vanlandingham. He's a pain in the ass to deal with, but his stuff gets pretty good reviews and is fairly priced.

UPDATE

oook, so this is what's been going on.

All. Hell. Has. Broken. Loose.

Anything that COULD go wrong on the head, has. The valves were too short, cut the margin down, still too short, got custom valves, now too long (I suppose this is better)

Ordered a BUNCH of bolts for suspension and such. Only 7 were the right pitch. Out of 20 (of the bolts that ACTUALLY matter. You know, the nice strong ones for the front suspension and brake system....) We had to ship them back, and get new ones shipped here. But then they were too long... so again... shipping time... ugh.

On the positive, I've built a handbrake.

The third member is done.

The front sway bar situation is getting taken care of- I've figured it out.

The fuel rail has been figured out.

The injectors and pump mess is sorted

The FPR is sorted

And probably a lot more stuff I'm forgetting. Pics will come soon. Bare with me. Sorry it's been so long, life is busy, you know? I switched careers from mechanics to in home sales consulting. I'm really busy these days, but this car is GETTING done. Pics soon!!!

Wow, I could have sworn I had an account here... I guess I'm the new guy Sad
