Default CEP products EXCELLENT!!

My car has been sitting for 3 months because my very small company has been busy.

The other day I started the engine after at least 10 weeks of NO START and damn if it didn't IMMEDIATELY start and build INSTANT oil pressure (dry sump).

The oil tank was at the mark IN SECONDS (no significant backdrain).

This engine had been untouched since the 602 dyno run - except for 4,000 road/dragstrip miles.

As much as I question Dave's sexuality, his products are indeed beautiful.
I would never take the chance on any copy from someone who's momma didn't teach them ethics.

.......and I didn't even mention the 3 liter CEP engine that will surely beat my 2.5 HP number here in the next month or 2......

Initial test has put it ahead of mine.

The owner of said engine may be slightly retarded (imo), but the facts remain.

Please, if you haven't already; go on turbo944.com and read Lindsey's side of the story. I have no loyalty to LR and you can definitely make a case against some of their "snake oil" products, but I wouldn't slander them for the dry sump fiasco. I haven't been convinced that either party is being 100% honest about this situation.

As ad aside, I'm going to quote a very wise man, "if you want to make money, stay the heck away from cars PERIOD" I don't want to downplay any of the unethical business practices that may occurred here, but NO ONE was ever going to get rich selling dry-sump oil pans for 944 turbos.

For me, it's not about the dry sump. It's about the deck plate and girdle. And I can tell you 100% that Lindsey racing is lying.
