update, I still have had no luck with contacting billetracing/kevin starting in mid 2009 at the corral forum and then also on other sites.
I have also been biting my tounge out of respect to this kevins situation. I have also held back saying/asking anything because I wanted to contact him first... with no luck since mid 2009.
So what I will finaly say now is, this billetracing guy goes and SPAMS dozens of forums with the same single post and then posts no updates or responds to offers of help. So His goal looks to me was only trying to screw with arao and I guess nothing more?. What kills me is this guy had no thoughts or interests about others with these heads that possibly could of helped out.
My obvious questions I have had for him since mid 2009 is... why did you pay all moneys (11,000+) in full in 6 DAYS??? as it is not nessasary to pay in full untill product was ready to ship?. Also if you had all this coin to to pay extra moneys for your one off custom heads, did you not have a extra grand for a direct flight to cal to see what componet problems arao was having with your custom one off heads if you were so pissed off? (this is why the 32v head prices were higher back then then they are now as russ stated he was having component problems). Also you never asked anyone for help with your situation, odd, as even I or my friends could of possibly helped you as we were going to cal once a year. Also why did you not try to renegotiate a price for the extra hold up time it took because of part problems?, instead of all this bs?. These things dont make sence. I feel you went about this whole situation completely the wrong way, but am still happy for you that you got your custom one off set of heads that NO one else has on the planet earth.

Hi Doug, I can see why some with these products would be leary of posting anything about there parts as frankly, there seems to be some real ranting psychos/stakers types on the net (corral forum) regarding these 32v heads. Since I already got my feet in this now, I used my Top Secret contact devise and picked up the A TELEPHONE and ordered and got some spare parts last week from Russ only because of some of this ranting and I dont even need any parts lol, he was even nice enough to send it by usa post as I asked.

As I have said before, the cops have a saying, theres your side of the story, theres my side of the story... and then theres the truth. The fact is regardless of the BS on some forums.... After 20+yrs in cali, Arao is still there and in business.
