Hey wes, on this link provided eariler in the thread:

http://www.speedtalk.com/forum/viewto ... =0&postorder=asc&start=30

You state, and I quote:
Quote:
I had no direct affiliation with any of the head manufactures at that point in time.


Now let me get this straight:

1. AFR paid for the dyno run.
2. Tony was at the dyno run, with the picture to document.
3. you were SELECTED by Tony to participate in this "experiment"
4. You got a significant discount on the product for your participation.
5. The heads were provided directly from the manufacturer directly for this test not off the shelf from some reseller.
6. AFR did all the flow numbers and testing on your Darts and cast iron heads, right? That's where you got all the numbers from isn't it?
7. Tony says we have "more" tests coming out soon. So I guess this was part of the AFR test cycle as it seems the reference to "more" would indicate as such.


How do you claim "no affiliation"? Or is the word "direct" some kind of out to make it seem different than it is? Or was the term "at this time" the out? Why feel the need to color the truth? Or do I have the truth wrong?

Was this or was this not totally coordinated with AFR and why not just say that? I don't understand why the wordsmithing? Just call it what it was, an AFR test with a donor motor from Wes for which Wes was compensated. I don't see the big deal of honest disclosure and why the attempt to color it as anything else.

Before you say no one wrote a check to Wes, let's look at that.

1. Three sets of heads flow benched for free. Compensation
2. Free dyno time to pick his combination. Compensation
3. Big discount on the AFR product. Compensation

Don't want to color the results with facts huh? Is there an NDA in play here? Seems clearly like affiliation to me, direct of otherwise.
