Interesting concept...

I remembered watching the videos he had a few years back. It appeared to be fully developed back then but then just vanished. I will check around and see what I can dig up from stuff I saved on it.

I love the video of the 70 Judge idling so mildly, then rippin' the asphalt off the road as it goes through a corner sideways!
Very cool concept- this needs to be marketed to the Pontiac engine building community.

I wonder if he was waiting on his patent.

PhoncoJohn.
I have the system in my posesion. we are building a new totaly streetable road race engine 475ci 4 inch stroke 700 hp 7000 rpm.
Unfortunatly the system hase not been reseaved very wel bij the
USA pontiac franety.

One system was send to the Edelbrock company and send back with the words ""it thussend fit our market stratergy"". i gues they are right in that as it meens that there older heads wil not be sold of bij the people and this meens that the new edelbrock heads wil suffer from beeing bought. nevertheless its holding of progres and tegnical marvel piece in that aspect.

Hotrod mag was hot for a special on the system, but the intyer deal whent south . one system was send to budler performance as wel, who did nothing with the consept(probely because they where just coming out with there own head).

As it is so far im one of the only ones with the system and iven i could not hold up to my side of the deal time whize when the system was shipt out to me as wel. it took another 2 years for me to set of having the new engine build. it wil never be a mass product it wil always be a ecsclusif piece of swiss engeneering availeble.
Not cheap but you can run a rezenable high hp NA engines without the use of turbo,s superchargers . to keep it streetable within the limits of the flow capasety of the edelbrock heads...

I saw this the first time round, excellent design. Love it.

I would imagine it's not well received by potential resellers because it's relatively unproven and quite intricate. They will be worried about reliability. It's only business...keep at it....the more you prove it works, the better it will be received.

I remember looking at this years ago and was intrigued by it. Looks like the project never went to far since the website is no longer active. Does anybody have pictures of the system? I can’t seem to find anything on the interwebs

Link wont work for me. That said I'd contact Kauffman Performance and Butler Performance about it as they're the biggest names in Pontiac. I'd also post this over on the Performance Years forums in the race section for maximum visibility. PY is by far the biggest Pontiac resource available.
