Cylinder Head Shootout

Andy, what's the wager?

What dress size do you wear?

Joshua, HHP

 

BRUTAL!!!!!

 

I was just wondering. Jeez

I'm thinking he's a 6.

 

Thats hilarious...... I prefer evening gowns Josh. Now that I think about it, I think you were posting this while I was on the phone with Bruce last night, lol.

 

Evening Gowns !!??:huh:

Is this why you change the tone of your voice when I talk to you after hours, Andy ?? Here I am thinking that you are just tired. Little did I know that you were trying to sound sexy on the phone with me. :supergay:

 

Thats too funny.

 

Thank You for the time, effort & expense....this test could not of come at a better time since I am currently in the market for heads & cam.
:thanks:

 

I want to thank Josh for doing this. He deserves major kudos. He is certainly doing a lot of work conducting this challenge. Thanks Josh.

This is a completely Bias Test which will prove nothing without tuning each head indiviualy. PPP will make the most power, not becasue they have the best heads on the market, but because they Advertise their product the most and have prefered tuning. Do we all think its a coincidence that they get the prefered tuning. We are not stupid. Go back to the drawing board guys and make this a fair test.

Sorry you waisted your money.

The results are not out yet and we all know PPP will be on top no matter what. Duh.............

Well hemiguy's first post was well stated that its hard to argue with him...but anyways some of us arent worried about peak numbers...i personaly would rather see a fatter low end from say 2300-5800 or so...let us not forget these are 4300 pound bricks we are pushing and TQ is king!

 

Besides that he is from SoCal I fully agree! leasantry: :thumb2:

 

I disagree with the statements obviously. The HHP heads did receive a tuning adjustment, and it was stated that the Mopar heads would also receive a different tune. We sent a set of off-the-shelf heads while others had the pleasure of knowing they were going to a shoot-out. I really am offended that there are those of you that think we had something to do with this shootout and that we are getting preferential treatment. I applaud HOP for doing what they are doing, but we are absolutely not getting any preferential treatment at all.

 

Ehhh. People always try to knock the king. I think it's telling that people assume PPP will finish on top before any results are published.

Maybe next time we can have one person collect a bunch of heads, and label them "A" "B" "C" "D" and send them to someone else to conduct the test. People would still complain.

Ohh - and how much advertising do you do with HoP anyway?

 

I understand that this test is going to be done using an HoP 392 strocker with HHP camshaft. I don't understand what this test is suppose to prove. If your doing a cylinder head shoot out why not use a flow bench? I would think that HHP has matched their cam and cylinder head package for optimun performance ( I would). Did the other vendors have access to the same? Just asking!!

 

No we did not know anything about the cam. My heads were sent before the cam was even selected, but they did send the heads to a flow-bench for testing as well.

 

We have not started with 5.7L's yet so I have to ask. What is the retainer to rocker contact caused by? Retainers too big? Wrong design?
