Friends, we have another person in John Anderson who is willing to devote his valuable time to answering our questions and clearly deserves the business (a la Skip). Not only that, but the product is obviously outstanding. Let's exercise our American freedom of choice wisely.

THank you very much BRB :-) I'll always try my hardest to be visible to to the list.

As far as ElonDooberhead's questions, YES, its the same deal, but we have only one block we are willing to do this with.

I have recieved many emails about the deal asking how we are able to discount it that much. Well, to the list, this is the deal. Its advertising. I would love to get one of our fully prepped engines to a lister. This way, you can hear about it first hand. We are very proud of our work, and this is a way of showing it off :-)

Turbo or NA, its the same short block deal. BUt its only one block that we have to do this with.

Take Care!

hey john if you build big bore purty motors like that i'll just get a long block and send it to you! I did a 2.7 once and i sold it to my cousin's friend, sadly he's out of the country but my father and i put long hours into it. Beautiful job. That knife edge crank is also gettin my attention. BTW: when is the 944 cup series race? I wanna be one of the first to get tickets!!!!

HI Euro Spec,

Send away, I'll take care of you. As for the Spec series, I'm still working on it. Its pretty much a go, but it looks more like the seaon will start with next year. But that gives us time to prep up :-) I'm getting the winsdshield banners cut now, to send out east, and plan to have more for the west coast. So I guess, now would be the time to get one if you want it. The first 10 for the west coast are free.

I'll get back to you and the list with more race details and rules...it just takes a little time.

Take Care!

Hey,

That motor looks pretty nice so far. I wouldn't mind a slightly more tame version someday that can run on pump gas.

One question though; why is the crank all heat blued near the rod journals?

THe crank color is normal. As far as a tamed down version, yes, we are currently building a couple that are a 2.8 liter big bore with 11.5:1 compression for the street.

I'm going to get some pictures of those motors up as soon as possible.

The 2.8 liter running that compression with our cam will dyno 200 at the tires.

Take Care
