I don't have the specs handy but I can tell you the lift is over 0.5" the limit for my class so I didn't use them in my race engine. They are in new unused condition and are ground on billet so they were expensive.
Cool, thanks. hopefully others that have the cams can chime in.

This is what John replied me 5 days ago on email

"trying to get every thing ready so I can send out the email on the new developement"

I have placed a deposit with him back in Oct 2018. If it gets produced, this header will be a gem.

Yep! John seemed very enthusiast about it over the phone. I got myself added to the email list. Excited to see all of the results etc of his testing

So it's been about 2 months. Any updates on this from the people who have put a deposit down/ect?

I remember reading about Hytech's hype as far back as the early 2000s. It seemed he had the same issue then as he does now; he wasn't able to get product out. As far as I know, Hytech is just some magical unicorn.

Still no email roughly 3 months later. I actually reached out to him a couple months back and inquired if he had sent the email specs; he responded saying he had not.

Really wanted something to happen with this, but if in the span of 3 months I can't even get an email I can only wonder how hard it will be to get the actual header. Yet again I'll probably go with the Urge Unicorn; that one atleast seems to be a tangible unicorn.

I actually reached out to John again the other day after my previous reply. I know the guy runs a very small shop, and he's constantly busy with other projects. His name speaks for itself in the industry though, if you have the time and money to work with him, you'll undoubtedly get the best header that can be had for most Hondas. Definitely an honest guy though. Here's the response I got for anyone interested. I'm still holding out hope, especially since I'll be putting my car on ice soon for the winter season, so I have nothing but time between essentially now and springtime. Hoping something happens, fingers crossed.
