I think I saw all of it Pete…. Franz opened it up and showed us the goodies..
Thanks! ?
Ready by Farmington??
Gonna be so slick pete!?
Is that in May? Hope it’s done well before then. Opting for larger valves has been a big hold up, but the long block should be at KCW in two weeks.
Not that Franz needs any inspiration to do Franz things, but thought this was worth sharing. I like his linkage setup.
Yummy.
We will build it if it comes.
Is that a reproduction case?
I see it has 1500 super on the case below the generator.

I doubt it…I don’t think 25/36’s are reproduced. Probably started its life as a NOS replacement case like this one:

Listed since Oct 2015. I think it may be priced like he really wants to keep it. 😀
Seems like it.
Soooo close. This has taken a minute. ?
Ask him what case sealant that is.

Already beautiful as a long block?
us after hours hackshows just trying to “keep up with the Jones’s”
That’s interesting.
That’s mine in the middle. I’m told it’ll be crated today, and shipper will pick up Monday or Tuesday. For some reason I keep hearing Tom Petty’s “The Waiting” over and over in my head….
