Engine builder wanted
« on: March 24, 2014, 08:09:59 PM »
Any Leeds on a decent shop or backyard guy who builds performance engines. Who would you not send a guy too?  Have been told of a few people but not interested in a 2 year waiting period.  Thx in advance.

I would recommend Terry Hoogstin
He may be busy since racing season is soon starting.
Screen name is Terry H

You could also try Darren K-roc

Could be wrong but I think darren usually has a line....

You should build it! With the wealth of info shared on the net these days, as long as you can read and use some common sense most anyone can build a decent motor!

Thanks for the replies.  It's in the works and will post some numbers when all is done.  2180cc.
Shop talk numbers of 150hp. Time will tell. 
FYI it's not thompsons, but mitchy already knows that.
