I was flipping through an old Excellence from 1990 and came across this ad. Hard to believe that they sold zero kits. Anyone out there seen one?
The 'cheap' kit was $1495 in 1990, which when accounting for inflation would be $2500 today (according to The Internet®). Wonder what turbo it is.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Attached image(s) |

Bernie Bergman... Fifteen-twenty years ago there was a story about a guy pulling into parking lot behind Bernie's shop, seeing him out back "clearancing" a stroker motor on an engine stand by revving it up to 4000, back to 2000, up to 4000. It evidently had a slight knock on startup, case not ground quite enough for the crank swing.
Oh, sorry, what was the question again? |
