Bob,

The short answer to your question is that Nick Arias and I had a deal for $10,000 for a "crate 302" to include his 12 port head and ready to go for the street. I put money down and has shipped a box of parts for the build. Nick was GREAT to work with. Before we had the deal done, he had sold that part of Arias Industires to Zallian. Nick Arias told me he would help me finish the 302 with Zallian. After about 2 phone calls with Zallian, I contacted Nick Arias again and he got me a refund. I just had an uneasy feeling about the whole deal and I listened to my instincts.

Nick Arias was fabulous to work with. The other day I came across some old correspondences from him over this deal and I wish I had been 6 months ahead - I might have had an Arias 12 port head in my car today.

I would still do it today if I could work with Nick Arias. But I wont do business with that other chump for the way he treated me.
