Ok Big news!

Talked to a rep named Brian at Crower and this is what I got:


Crower makes premium billet rods for around $640 US
JE makes custom pistons for the d17 for $600 US

THey said if you want cam work and headwork, they need a guinee pig or someone to send their head off to them and they will screw around with it and mix and match parts. I want to know what everyone thinks and if anyone knows any more info on parts.

I'm willing to let them do Research & Development on my head. But I'm not willing to pay for them to learn off it.

Let me know cause I've got a spare. (Yes I know this is a longshot.)

Wow, the return rate of your interest is awsome. Ok, the deal is they would tamper with the head, but you would pay for all the parts created. Ofcourse, I would sell em to you at cost or as cheap as crower would give to me (guinee pig person). Let me know if anyone is interested. I mean, there are a few who have volunteered, but it is best if you have an extra motor and head. A new motor is 300 of ebay FYI. Just let me know what you all want to do.

I told you this would get under way.

So are you saying that Crower is willing to tamper with our head but we have to pay for it? Sounds like a great time but I'm married.

Seriously though a head assembly runs for about $300+ dollars. I think if Crower is learning off our engine parts they should give us the first part free so someone can test it out. I mean what if they screw it up? Are they going to reimburse us the cost of a new one?

Like I said before I have an engine and I am willing to donate parts to the cause but I will not pay the expense for someone else to learn on and possibly ruin the parts.

I'm sure if the parts turn out to be successful many others will pay for the service and Crower will make their money back and then some. It's kind of one of those you scratch our backs and we'll scratch yours.

I got my engine with 16K on it for $325 off Ebay not including shipping. Shipping was a little less than $200 dollars cause it came from MA to AZ.
