I guess if you don't have that, you don't have everything yet.

 I think you should buy it and drop it in the Elky just because it has your first name in the block.  razz

 When crate 572's go for over 13k, yeah, it seems reasonable. What would bother me about dropping 12k is that it hasn't been run since the build ...tsktsk

Why not break it in and tune it on a dyno ?? Then he would have real numbers to show for torque and hp to enhance what is there. Could be a steal or a bust...dunno

 He's got both the Weber carbs and the Inglese injection. Either way, you'd have to be into the tuning to really make it work.

I'm into that stuff so I could justify it, if it were me. I can see where not many would be into that, though.

Sure would be a blast in a Can-Am style street car...like this Superformance Lola : http://www.car-revs-daily.com/2014/04/22/lola-mkii-can-am-spyder-at-olthoff-racing/
