That was the direction we were going to go with in the 30', Sterling 800's small blocks.

The fuel requirement killed the deal though, but 8500 rpm sounded like a cool idea at the time.

Your plan will work better fuel wise and rpm wise.

Don't forget about using that Kinsler Injection system. A big YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!

I know that guy that does all of the polishing for Kinsler. He did all of my aluminum polishing. You have to see it to believe how good he can make it look. A friend of mine had his GM BBC EFI plenum polished. Looks Awesome.

I spent 10 years doing small block chevy, race motors. I guess stuff just leaks out.

Frankie still talks about the day last spring when you stood on your head, on the deck of my boat.

We all remember all of your help during those early weeks when the Skater was first delivered. Looking forward to seeing you soon.
