Glenn passed last Thursday. Arrangements are on hold till Glenn's out of country brother can make it.

The man was a pure genius when it came to porting heads and intakes. I remember when I brought my first set of hand ported Gen 3 Hemi heads for him to flow check. I never asked him to, but he did his own magic and touched them up free of charge . My ports then looked like a work of art that only like Glenn could do. Later on when I brought him in a Gen 3 MP intake for port work, he quoted me $250. I said no problem. When I went to pick it up, all he asked for was $50 and said the rest of the balance was for R&D and thanked me for letting him have the first chance to work on these new Hemi's.

The man will be truely missed, espeically in my heart

RIP Glenn

Yes it is, but here's some good news. Glenn hand ported a one off Slant 6 head for us. That ole 6 banger just set a National class record this past weekend in Vegas.
