Any view of the number produced for each builder? Since I'm one of one I'm wondering if mine was build by the "new guy". Hopefully that means he was a bad ass to qualify to be a part of a team and builds great stuff.

That would probably have to come from "the inside," John. Odds are, trainees go through a long process of dual instruction before they are safe for solo. We only see the info from a tiny fraction of the total owners and we have only seen the dropped valve IIRC. Oh, and an SC replacement I believe. Compared to the regular line, I think the quality from Romeo has shown to be pretty good overall.

Unfortunately, Ms. Booth is the only one on your list WP for which I have a signature. So either the Niche ranks are changing or, I just don't have all the signatures yet.

John, (@OH3Cobra) thanks for Brian's John Hancock. Added.

I think maybe if someone,,,,, cough @kilobravo cough,,,,,, were to make a poll, listing all the know builders names for us to click, would give us forum members an idea of who built how many...


Just sayin''''


EDITED TO ADD: I created the poll thread

KB,

The Adam "Stien" above is actually Adam Stier. He also built the motor in my R and I came across his page on Linkedin.

Heres a pic of the Niche line builders at the Romeo plant. This was taken when the last gen of gt500 were being produced. But some of the names are the same.

Ya I'm not sure how long their "tenure" is assembling on the Niche line. I had a 96 Cobra back in the day and a lot of the builders for the 96-98s weren't on the team for the 03-04 Cobras.

Chad: HOW did this thread confirm that for you? I ask because we don't have a "Chad" plaque yet. Any chance you can get a photo of yours?...good lighting...directly over the top of the blower, parallel with its surface. (hint, hint, nudge, nudge, wink, wink)<smiling>

TIA

Someone posted a picture in here with all the engine builders and their names. One of the engine builders name was Chad Wolak. I will snap a pic and post it on here. I'm not saying it is for sure him but it looks like the only name that fits.

Chad: <smiling> NOW I know how you knew..too funny but most of all, thanks for the photo and unless someone actually knows the fella's name for sure, I'll go with your translation. :-)

Three slots left...
