A rather boring honk, but it should be loud and clear.

It should work with key on or off....

I am not aware of a single motor situation that the Dart Platinum 200 cc Pro-1 cylinder head would outperform the AFR 195's.


And that right there is my entire problem with the leghumping agenda. To your credit you kept it limited to the Dart 200CC. A real leghumper would say any head.

Beach Bum you said in one thread you've been recommending AFR for some 13 years or so over every other head, despite oil and casting problems that no one will argue. Kinda diminishes your position on the matter in my eyes. Anyone who would admit to suggesting a head with oil and casting problems well...you see where I'm going. To their credit, they fixed it I am not saying it still exists.

There's really no point of going through this any more. Clearly a number of people drank the Kool Aid and I will never agree with it. Port the Darts, they will be more than competitive. Dart's target market, their demographic of higher end racers who will take a head and think nothing of porting it, they see it differently. Trophies don't lie. I guess that's the difference between people who take racing as a hobby seriously, and those who want to dabble in it.

I will make this point one more time.....One of the resident leghumpers has no problem recommending $1200 rods for a 500hp motor, when $600 rods will be overkill, but recoil at throwing a few hundred bucks at porting heads to get performance. I don't get it. But that's the internet for you isn't it? Everyone is an expert.

I will agree to disagree at this point because there's just no seeing anything past your chosen reality.

Again, Tony and Wes, thanks for the time and effort. Wish I had the opportunity I'd put a set of T1 CNC'd heads up against Eliminators if I had the opportunity to do it again. I'd like to see that.

The 195 is a great niche product, the most competitive in the line. Good luck with it Tony.
