One of his more recent FB posts Jake was stepping away from custom type IV engine direct orders and just build what he wants and then will release them through LN Eng. to handle the distribution, paperwork and customer contact when and if they become available.


"No more direct human interaction for me. I am moving to my final engine, one displacement, one stage, and one proven result. All will be the same, and I’ll build one when I want to. No more orders, no more timelines. No more budgets. No more opinions, comments or telephones and messages. No more groups, forums, or bullshit!"
"I sold the T4 Store to LN Engineering in 2012. They will now sell my engines, in the very limited quantities that they will be built."

That’s the plan we have for our 911 engines. Build what we want and then sell it to whoever wants it. I know exactly where Jake is coming from and I applaud him.

I'm going the same way, wife retires in one year and we plan to travel. I have about 2 years of work on the books and I'm also going to spec build a '72 /6 conversion, after that I'm going to get real picky about the jobs I take on.
The engine above I happen to have everything and it's all cleaned and ready to go together, but even then it will still be 3-4 months as I have other work that needs to be done first.
