    In 1976, I was really excited to get my used engine. I find it interesting to see that the mystique has lasted all of these years and the aftermarket has made so many parts. :)

    I think the reason is that those engines were "otherworldly"from the get go!

    Here's an example of a good day gone bad. I saved this to remind myself of several things in life. :) The other rod was in pieces that was next to this one. This was a lightened Forgetrue piston with polished LeMans rods. DSC02855.JPG DSC02856.JPG

    Lots of people have stupid amounts of money. I'm not one of them, but if I was a multi-millionaire, I'd have bought it.
