I figure that they finally got their valvebodies sorted out. I bought one in the early '90's and had lots of trouble with it and when I ask for advice on how to fix it, all I got was shoulder shrugs. Looks like they've made some money, so I'm assuming they did get'em fixed!

I met Joe in 1993 and bought a valve body from him shortly after, it was the external TB design that he had at the time. I never had any issues with it, I'm sorry to hear that you did. I guess it's the blues of starting up a performance business. Things don't always work like they should. I had my time too back in the 70's with porting heads.

Since then he (Joe) does alot of R&D for Coan, on converters and transmissions. His new internal stuff is very, very good, I'm running one now and have 1.065 in the box with a 3spd. transmission, and no light weight parts. This is close to most PG's around here. And I'm running a small block, if I was to use a big block with more power I'm sure that I would be well over 1.100 in the box.
