Default BA oil pump gears

Just looking through the latest issue of Performance Ford and on page 32 there is a article from Chris at Blue Power saying that he developed oil pump gears in conjunction with us(Kostecki Engine Centre),this is untrue!!!!
All development work on these oil pump gears was done in house without anyones assistance let alone from Blue Power,we have invested a considerable amount of time and money into developing these parts for BA Boss engines and it is annoying(to say the least)when other people (and editors of magazines allow this happen) jump on the band wagon to promote themselves.
We have developed a range of Parts for BA Falcons which includes :
Chrome Moly oil pump gears for XR6T and Boss V8 engines.
Adjustable camshaft vernier gears for BA/BF Boss V8 engines.
CNC Boss cylinder heads and camshaft kits.
This is not intended to slag off other people,but to get recognition for what we have done,not for what other people claim to have done with us.

Apologies to Kostecki Engine centre - At no time did we intend to infer that we had a hand in the development of the oil pump gears that Kostecki engine centre manufacture.

At the time of the photo shoot, we had several different sets of gears in the shop, and went with the kostecki gears for the photoshoot as Andrew being an old friend in grp2 drag racing. We are in fact working on several different projects that PFM magazine had to spread the story over more that one issue.
