That sucks...... FedEx lost a head that I bought years ago. I got one of them. I don't understand how they can loose something like that..... Or anything for that matter. You scan it, put it on the plane/truck, you scan it when it comes off. If its not there, then someone stoled it out on the road, or in the air.....

Something as expensive as a stroker kit, I certainly hope the supplier paid for insurance.

Well... They found it but now won't be here when rest parts will, so looks like build is off a week. It got "scanned" but never left one of the processing places or something to that effect, at least that is what they told me.

Thems some pretty heads! I hadn't noticed before what looks like an oil return/drain channel cast in. Now you shouldn't be bored for awhile.
