Those who have dealt with Advanced Induction inside?

I have been talking to AI quite extensively about a heads and cam package and would like to hear about other's experiences with AI. If you could share what AI did for you and the results i.e. dyno numbers and times. They seem to be very knowledgable in talking with them. But with having different parts of my stroker machined bad two times now I just need reassurance.

You have NOTHING to worry about.

My car has been a saga that can compete with anyone...engine builder/machine work problems, parts supply problems etc. Looking back on the experience, there are a few things I would have done differently and there a couple of companies that I wouldn't do business with ever again.

Sending my heads to Ai is not one of those things. I am and was beyond happy with their service and support. They were busy when they did my heads, but still got everything done in a timely manner. They called me when they needed something and kept me informed of how things were going. There were no suprises or problems of any kind.

I called with a simple question about changing the cam specs (that could have waited) and Phil called me back that night at 9pm there time to discuss it. I haven't ever come out of dealing with an automotive company feeling secure and "happy" about the transaction, but I did when dealing with Ai.

I won't have numbers for you until Jeff Creech comes back out to CA to tune the car, but it runs awesome.

Advanced Induction (Ron, Phil and anyone else there) run a stand up company that I would and do recommend to anyone. You won't be dissapointed.

I have: Full port LT1s, Custom cam, all valve train parts from Ai

I can recommend AI with complete confidence. You will not be disappointed. Ron and Phil are completely customer oriented and care about the final product as much as you do. I too have a frustrating saga with my stroker project, and AI has been there every step of the way trying to help me sort through the issues even though none of the issues are directly related to their work.

I have their full-port LT4 heads, cam (Comp custom grind) and valve train parts (Comp).

Hey Ai are some of the best people I've dealt with. I'm in the middle of getting a heads and cam package. Great customer service. I'd highly reccomend them.

Re: Those who have dealt with Advanced Induction inside?

AI did my heads after my first builder misunderstood my application and hosed me. Phil and Ron were very responsive and basically explained everything to me step by step and answered all my questions (first time I've taken on a project of this magnitude). I couldn't be happier with their service and product. I'm still sorting out some slipping trans issues, but so far the results looks very promising. I ordered during a GP, so there was a bit of a backlog, but Phil worked with everyone that had shortblocks ready to go and put in extra hours as needed to keep us all on track. Two thumbs up from me!!!

Re: Those who have dealt with Advanced Induction inside?

I'm very happy with my AI stuff great quality and they go beyond what they need to for customer service. I only hit the dyno once and put down 320rwhp. I was stumped and couldn't figure out my problem. I posted here and didn't even contact AI as i knew their stuff wasn't the problem. Ron and Phil at AI contacted me tried to help me located the problem and even had one of their best tuners look at datalogs. I ended up finding out it was the fuel pump was junk. I replaced it and the car is an animal, i have yet to hit the dyno again so i have no numbers but the service alone is enough to go to AI. I also needed a set of Comp R lifters for my car and AI didn't take credit cards so Ron sent me a set on the promise that i would send him a money order the same day. Thats amazing . I'm sure its because i was already a customer of theirs not just some new guy, but still thats amazing to me. AI forever!
