LTB Fitment

Anyone know if Blemco resolved the initial fitment problem on the 4th gen between their Stage II Lower Tie Bar and the Cattman headers? Matt's web site mentioned the problem and working to solve it, but I would have thought once the problem was solved (if it has been), that the reference to this as a problem would have been edited out.
And along these same lines, Brian has an improved version of his VQ30 header in the works and close to release date. Anyone know if there are any plans for Blemco to re-address this compatability issue? I've tried to contact Matt thru his web site as well as a PM, but no answer: anyone know if he's "out-of'-town" or in some way pre-occupied?

From what I've read, Matt is just trying to spend time with his family and keep up a job that actually makes money. He is getting emails but doesn't respond to ones he doesn't think will matter, e.g. ones for items he has no time to make or ship. If he's not getting back to you about this, I think it's safe to say he hasn't made the Stage 2 LTB fit with those headers and probably won't ever be able to.

Certainly a matter of personal priorities, and I cannot critize someone for putting family time and earning a living to support that family over running a hobby/business. Been there, done that. But a simple yes or no would have answered the question I posed of him, and an essential to any successful business (be it a large, commercial business or only a hobby business) is customer satisfaction.

Yeah that's lame, especially since he answered a question Brian Catts posted in this Suspension forum yesterday so he's obviously not overwhelmingly busy. At the very least he should put up something on his website that says he no longer is producing these products and no longer will address technical questions about them. And if people e-mail him questions, he could have a standard response that would take one second to send. It's good to hear that he's got a job though, I know he was looking for a while.
