BUYER BWARE !!!!!!! I purchased a high performance high horse power hemi and it was completely rebuilt. It actually wasn't !!! He expects you to just go and instal it . I believe it is rare that anyone takes them apart ! I did and found a bad engine crank ! had to remove it and have it turned and replaced !!! 1000.00 more !!!! Upon contacting Alan He got instsntly enraged ! Yelled at me and said "You don't know what you are talking about" he then said "TO BAD" And hung up on me !!!! The machine shop that turned the crank said the damage was so bad that as soon as I would have put my foot in it , it would have come apart !!!!!!! So Steer Clear Of this RIPPOFF !!!!!!!!!!
<P>with less than 500 miles engine started to fall apart. 1 lifter broke, 2 pushrods broke, one valve sinking into retainer so rocker hits retainer instead of valve stem, 6 of eight exhaust valves stems are mushrooming. components are not what was sold to me. valves do not say manley as listed. Have not been able to identify lifters, believe they are pro comp because he told me to call procomp its there parts
<P>Paid $174 each. plus shipping. Great quality and thicker than stock. Nice and clean welds and EDP coating. </P>
<P> </P>
<P>Ended up with a space issue between the torque boxes on the one-pc floor and the front-most welding flanges at the ends of the frame rails. </P>

Very impressed with this product from order entry to installation and operation. It is very rare now a days that upgrade items come with complete instructions, photos and all the necessary parts, but everything you need is included in this kit. Installation was a breeze, as even the wiring is color coded to match the existing wiring so no guessing here. Great kit guys, and they look excellent.
I have a pair of these but haven't mounted them yet. They appear to be superior construction with a very nice finish. I have a set of C5 brakes to go on there too. All just fits under my 16" wheels. They are lightweight, have improved steering geometry, direct swap out for stock spindles and allow for late model corvette brakes. Should be pretty cool. I'll post again after I've go them on there.
Great product--I installed them in less than 90 minutes and they work perfectly. Many thanks to Brian at Spaghetti Engineering for cheerfully answering questions I had.
No major modifications required for the install--just splice the wires into your existing harness and drill two small holes into the metal tail light housing. Easy to do.
Check out YouTube for a video of my install... should be under digitails install and user brenthmc.
<P>I purchased the whole kit to replace the vacuum operated doors on my '68 and have nothing but good things to say about it. The kit comes with everything you need to change from your old vacuum operated doors to electric motor driven doors. There's a world of difference in the way the doors open and shut with the new motors! No more starting and stopping or getting hung up like they used to with the vacuum. Easy to install too. Anyone can do it. Just unhook your headlight door, remove the headlight capsule and drill a couple small holes and mount the motor. The electric comes right from your headlight harness so that's an easy hook-up. Replace the capsules and hook-up the doors to the new motors and your done. You can even leave all of the original vacuum parts on the car and no one will know that you using electric motors on the doors. I highly recommend this product to anyone thinking of converting from vacuum to electric motors.</P>
My brother and I both purchased Trim Parts for each of our cars. The rod on both were way to short and we were forced to modify them. The chromer is good as well as the finish. If you buy the trim parts plan on modifying the rod. I used new door locks as well and ended up modifying the door lock instead of the push rod.
