Wade called today and is intersested in sending up his new head design for comparison. I know some people have had problems with Wade in the past ,but this truely shows he is in it for the long run and may have a wicked new setup for our dales.Anyone striving to continually improve should be saluted.I know 1st hand coming up with new designs takes alot of time and $$$.
Now remember this is ONLY going to happen if more people donate.The more product testing we do the more $$$ its going to take.Pipe shootout will also be interesting.I know 1st hand if we test everything with every possible setup it can be a few days straight of testing.The other thing to note is that this is for no profit everyting over the cost will be donated to the site.This is a good way to give back and to benefit any rider looking for performance.

Im flat *** broke and wont be able to afford head porting for quite some time, but I can do $10, I know its not much but Im guessing every little bit would help. Also, didnt DAB port Sandstorms head? I wonder if they would want to step in with the comparison, I have no clue though.

My head is ported for my 50000 ft elevation.. We have much less air and DAB says he has to port more for velocity then anything else.. Unfortunately nobody else has a head ported by him. He has my starting flow numbers and the final numbers from the porting. Since my head was partially ported before he couldn't get a bone stock number... My dyno numbers are coming on Monday w/ my current set up.. My Athena flows 37% bettter then stock and I wouldn't hesitate to race any big bore Dale no matter who makes it.. Everyweek I gotta hear my brother say, I made a mistake selling the Athena..

I'll chip in $25. I am getting my engine rebuilt with one of Wades new heads right now.

I didn't. Our 434 has about 125hrs on it. Buddah did new rings on it after 50 hrs. New piston this winter or next summer and a new sleeve if necessary..
