Here is his 404 ci Boss that took 5th place:

WOW!!! Just Bad Ass

That's a bad ass engine to score that well at the displacement it's at in that contest

Awesome, and a really pretty motor to boot!

I wonder how much power it would have made if they went past the 6500 rpm limit??? Said the HP was still climbing!!!!

Adney did pretty well again.

Nice, RM. You don't sound near as crotchity on video as you do in type.

And Barry's FE entry:

He's a good old fella..... Some of you guys are way too sensitive...

Very nice articles and videos. Its good to see some of our guys in the competition. Yes, Randy is a good dude. One of the highlights of any "big block bash", is sittin around and talking engines with him. He's forgot more about racing and engines than I'll ever know.

That engine sounds pretty Cocky !

Randy is a very straight shooter! He has set me straight plenty of times! Glad to see our guys doing this competition. Their performance speaks loads of the resources available on this board!

Did you read where he is claiming 520 cfm on those heads, I would really like to know how he did that.

Ouch............... That wasn't nice, and He has nothing to hang his head about. I bet you do a dollar per average hp comparison, he goes to the top:twisted:

Its hard for the everyday shop guys like Adney and Randy to do this deal..............

I'd like to see you compete...... You may just get belly full of that pie.

I've seen them in person..... It's not a claim it's a fact. Kaase does not lie about stuff like that if anything he will lowball the numbers.

I have know Randy for many years now, and I guess if you don't truly know him, I can understand how one could feel that way.

He is very opinionated and mater of fact guy. I just look at my friends good traits and over look the ones that maybe not what I prefer.

No ones perfect................. Randy's good, way out weighs his gruff.

The funny part is, a huge percentage of the time he's arguing with someone, he is usually right.

I don't doubt you in the least, I was just surprised to hear that because Charlie said those heads were only good for the low 400's

I would imagine when Jon cast those heads, he added enough material to go where he would ever need to go.

But with that said, the ones on the small inch engine I'm sure don't flow that number.

X2 and the majority of the time it's somebody hows done some stupid idiotic crap and they want people to tell them what the want to hear.....
