I believe this is Bill Coon's last update on his SOHC parts:

If you read this I feel for you Bill, I looked at the 'cammer head soon after the block was in production. I know what it cost to get the Shelby block into production, the SOHC heads were going to be at least twice that if you included cams (left & right, intake manifolds (single 4, dual 4, weber, efi,) rocker covers (left & right) etc. I sat in Carrolls office and said if we take this on now (~2000) we'll never break even on the investment. The cammer heads is a HUGE undertaking no matter what the penut gallery say's.
In the end Bill will be a hero IMO.
