Shaft Rockers

[Nick ALFANO <71amx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Frank,

I am glad someone can read things without putting a
ugly spin on them.

I don't recall Andre ever saying he was selling
Harland Sharps products nor that he had them on the
shelf.  He only stated the they were available from
Harland now.  He also said they were one complete
shaft.  Both of which, according to Randy Sr. himself,
are not correct.  I was just making that clarification
so people were informed correctly.  It was not
intending to snipe anyone.  I like Andre and even
promoted buying parts from him by name in my e-mail. 
I have not ever screwed anyone on any dealings and
typically go further than I have to when someone has a
problem.  The people who have dealt with me know this.
 Maybe something in my post could have been worded
better.  I have been working a lot of hours so
sometimes have to rush through my posts.  If I
offended anyone, I apologize.

As for the rockers, mine are for anything from a stock
to full out race engine but will be priced like the
cheaper sets out there.  This was my goal the whole
time as I stated weeks ago.  To offer a best in class
part for a middle of the road price.  The point was,
if you can buy Crane Gold rockers for the same price
of Crane Energizers, which would you buy?  If you can
buy them from an AMC guy or a all make guy, which will
one will be there for you?  This was also not meant to
cut down Harland Sharp.  They make a great part that
has it's place in the market.

Look, I didn't take Andre's remark as slapping me
down, and I don't 
think Nick meant to "snipe" Andre either.
Clarification/correction psosts 
shouldn't be taken that way -- they are just more or
corrective info -- 
we all make mistakes or jump to the wrong conclusions
sometimes. Let's 
not get hung up over little things! You have to
remember that things 
like tone of voice and facial/body expressions aren't
in an e-mail. Those 
things convey more meaning in a conversation than we
often realize! 

There is more than one way to skin a cat, or make
rockers. Just listen 
to the facts, and see what part works best for you.
Sounds to me like 
the HS rockers Andre will be selling are more for
street/mid level 
racing, whereas the ones Nick are making are really
heavy duty race only 
parts. Not that the race parts couldn't be used on a
street engine, just 
that it would be overkill and money spent that could
be used elsewhere 
-- depending on how pricing between the two parts
compare.
