Did Jake not build a couple of engines last year,with a price tag of $25,000. |
Just one. Thats all I wanted to do.
Moving forward the CS will be a 18,500.00 longblock. This will be fully tested, and dynoed, using my standardized cooling system. Ignition timing will come optimized. The owner will finish the engine, with my assistance.
I will build a maximum of two per year, and don’t give a damn if I get an order for one, or not. I build T4s these days because I love them, not because I have to. _________________ Jake Raby

Exactly. I am finishing my Type 181 (481!) now. I started the project in 1999! _________________ Jake Raby

You haven't missed much.
Well, there was a nasty diesel emissions scandal but it's all good now....
