Free for nothing record motor
« on: October 15, 2015, 02:50:01 PM »
That is right. Free Nissan 3 liter motors one of which set the F/FS record at Bonneville in Jack Costalla's 788 car and a turbo charger engine (no turbo) that set the F/BGS record at El Mirage. Some years ago. Complete with Rich Fox built baby bug catcher injection and turbo manifolds. No fuel pump. Also spare Arias pistons, couple of core engines, and a DOHC version of the base SOHC motor. Call Wayn Phillips at 650-368-5044 home   Cell 650-274-9247. Will not come down on price.

Well that lasted about 30 seconds. Maybe I should have asked more. Anyway it's promised. So sorry. You snooze, you lose.

Thanks Rich! :-) :evil:

I'd wondered where Buddy was!

We don't here from him in, what, a year, and then - POOF - he swoops down from out of nowhere like a red tail hawk and scrapes up a fat prairie dog before we even knew we were at the buffet!

Well played, Mr. Walker!  :cheers:
