Jay Brown is an expert as are many who write on those forums are. BTW, Jay Brown wrote a couple books, which I've actually purchased.
There are postings from the engine builder in the FE Forums at the time there were problems with these SOHC parts.
The chain drives were defective and the failure rate of the Coon heads may not have been 100%, but the defective rate was high. Would you still install parts with a 50% +/- failure rate? I wouldn't.
You haven't read Damage's threads at all. He has made clear what he wants in emails and phone calls to the engine builder. You refuse to read or just ignore it.
40 miles for $60,000. Personally, I don't care if the engine builder built a successful company or even if donates to charities, he built an engine with defective parts, sold it and is not honoring the warranty.
Again, the engine builder was aware that Coon heads had many issues, including porosity problems, and the chain drives had a significant failure rate dating back to 2010. As I said before, the engine builder must have ignored the information.

I read Damages build thread and this thread in its entirety today so it is fresh in my mind.
He did not post the emails so I don't know what he did or didn't ask for or when he actually sent them. You again have taken his word on what he sent, when and made many assumptions.
Who said he is not honoring the warranty. He asked for a list of parts and Damage said he sent them. What was on this list? Do you know? Was it reasonable? Was in complete, was it understandable, from the list was Keith able to tell something that Damage did not say? I don't know and
neither do you.
Anyhow I am bored with the back and forth. Obviously neither one of us is going to change the others opinion. Although a few people have taken my side and none has taken yours.
