Damn, that is dirty as hell and the shipping is awful! You won't see a DH customer here. The fact that Catalyst said his DH racing clutch broke, and many others on the site stating how horrible many of the DH racing products are, I will not look to buying anything from those people.

Also, those stupid claims on their website is a joke. To Prod, you got sent junk by DH racing.

Sorry to hear it Prod hopefully you can get your money back. I wouldnt accept it in that condition but if you do decide to keep it and it runs, drop the 80 bux for a dyno runs for anyone who is still supporting these guys.

And yes, now I AM hating on the quality of DH products.

EDIT: I've seen built blocks by average street racers look ALOT better than that. Those pistons are either covered in ****, or they are used. They could've wrapped the block in some clear wrap too.

If I was going to pay anyone to build a block for me it would be Wil at Exospeed.



It speaks for itself.

Well, I guess it's starting again. People are bashing, and there's still no dyno. I've seen pics of the ported head for our cars, and it looks decent. I don't know what happened up there to Prod's stuff-not okay.

its true tho, without dynos its just a word of mouth hp gain. I could say that you will get 1 hp but without a dyno its not proven and therefore im making statements on a product that hasnt been tested.Like it has been said in earlier posts, it doesnt matter if its been tested in other motors, our car isnt other motors.

I'm also waiting on the head. rscivic has it installed and feels a big gain already. She's going to dyno soon with the SF base kit.

Once I get mine, it's getting tuned as well on a stock car. You guys keep hating...

Josh just Pm'd me. He is still here and giving support. I explained to him my concern and told him that as soon as he gets me my order I will post dyno results the next day. I already have a shop lined up for the dyno and Speedfetish is waiting on the parts to do the install for me.

So Dh-racing is still here. I think they are playing it smart and laying low. They offered $150 to anyone who dyno's their parts. I know if I was someone with the pulley and did not need the spacer, I would be on a dyno the same day and post results. I know out of the 30 people some one w/ the single groove can put on a pulley. Damn it does not take a speed shop to unbolt and bolt.

I am still supporting Dh-racing. Just concerned like the rest. I am one of the few with alot of money invested. So I have more to loose than most of the other posting.

Gearbox: keep me posted and I will do the same for you.

Guns, I'll keep you updated. I seriously feel ashamed at some of the things members are saying. At least wait until someone puts up a dyno before you start bashing. But whatever, do what makes you happy.
