KayD has a 200 KDX.

Vince has a 200 KDX.

You have (by notes) a 220 KDX.

Not the same head.

..if'n you're lookin' to use your PC monitor laser eyes to measure squish angles, piston clearance and chamber volume so you can grind yer own.

Your kidding right? I don't think Ron has to worry about two dimensional images giving away too much information or allowing people to perform their own equivalent work. I know that I also wanted to see pictures of the final product prior to purchase since I have bought a couple of shoddy products in the past based upon internet recommendations. If you have the machine shop equipment you would likely buy a TSR or equivalent software program and turn out your own heads or just get the dimensions from any number of performance shops and perform the work

With the internet you don't know if someone is using a file, dremel tool, and peanut grinder to produce "killer heads" unless you have some fairly objective input. For me the pictures were worth more than a 1000 words. In Indawood's pictures, I see a high quality, clean, and polished product that was produced from a well used head. Similar pictures combined with a reasonable price was the deal maker for me when I decided to send our 4 mile head to Ron for work. :wink: :grin:

re: 'Your kidding right?'

Somewhat. Tongue in cheek anyway.

I've heard worse.

Having looked at a pic of a modified carb I've heard, 'I can do that myself!! from some.

...where's my p-nut grinder..... :?

Good question. He hasn't posted since 2011. At some point his account password must have been compromised.

There are similar pics detailing the 200 head but much earlier on. I must make a index it's getting hard to find stuff
