Jakes looking at making these kits available for what's a really reasonable price.
Here's the details: Engine Thread on Jakes Forum I'll put them together for cheap labor. He's only making four right now, but email him for details. |

Levi, I don't know who pissed in your corn flakes, but it damn sure wasn't me.
If someone wants to buy shit parts from some clown that sits behind a desk and has no clue how even tune a Type IV engine- thats fine. I build these engines everyday and know what works and what don't and can offer advice that some parts pusher has no clue about. Think he can tell you precise timing and jetting or AFR for a comple engine design??? Hell no! Just ask DNHUNT here how easy his engine basically fell together with me being 2000 miles away and sending him compatible parts. DAMN I DON"T EVEN SELL PARTS! The stuff that I was offering ( and I did not offer it here because of this kind of bullshit) was primarily aimed toward beetle owners that have no engine already and 100HP is a HUGE leap for them over the stock engine or a tweeked type I. This post was not started by me! It was started by someone else that also thought the offer was a good deal. Excuse me for opening the son of a bitch! Sure you can buy generic chevy parts for 1/3 the price, and since you have that attitude you should do so. Hell I have said many times if I were going to do a conversion I'd slap in a cast iron slug myself! What a way to start a Friday, with some whining bullshit! Go into this business yourself, work 14-18 hour days (while paying employees more than you make yourself as the owner) trying to have the best things available and accomplishing that. You'd take the same stand as me if you had any heart at all for what you do. I do this because I love it- if not I'd be twisting wrenchs 9-4 on Turbine engines, have benefits, get paid holidays and be like a normal person. The day this is a job, is the day I'll sell the whole damn place. I think I'll go down to the junkyard and find something to beat on with a sledge hammer! |
