I honestly wish I knew about you before I ordered from hitchcock, I most likely would have gone with your kit instead. Where in the states are you located?
I am in Tennessee, and the development and power work on the heads is done here. We have a shop in NJ were we do cranks and bearing work, and some rebuilds.
Most of our builds are done by the owners, with our tech support. None have failed.
Anyway, we know that we are not as high profile as Hitchcock, so we are not surprised that some people don't know about us. We often end up troubleshooting Hitchcock kits for inexperienced builders. They are basically a catalog house, and we are performance specialists. There is a difference.
The Hitchcock kit will work well enough if you build it right. It's just that there are some things that we have worked out that help the build to succeed that they don't seem to know about or understand. We have participated in several 612 successful projects, even though we prefer tbe 535 for our own Ace kits.
You won't find much that we don't know about Bullets, and we engineer all our stuff, and have created some new designs and methods for Bullet performance., such as high-lift roller rocker heads, new bearing designs, breather mods, air filters, etc.
