Check out my oil filter forensics thread! Offended? Click here"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

I have a ton of crap from him. His wife used to toss in tons of Zotz with the orders. His sons took over, I think. I haven't hand my hands in a old VW in ages. That bus I rebuilt had a completely reworked crank.. stroked to 74mm. Gene did the heads himself. He was a huge proponent of moderate compression engines, so all of his street engines had 6.8-7.2:1 compression IIRC. He also sold that Oberg filter setup for the VW with the element sensor which I put on all my cars. The only one I never got to work on was a Notchback. I restored several "station wagons" (buses) and all the bugs, ghias and squarebacks, but never a notchback. |

Stumbled across this.  My old coach fitted his out with an "Elefant" motor kit. I forget the actual capacity, it was more than 2 litres, maybe three or more with Porsche hot up parts. Cant remember the details. You guys would know about those ay? |
