So FedEx calls and tells me there is a giant wooden box they are delivering to my house. The operator says it is from "something like Aircooled Technology or something" and do I know what that means?

I have been expecting this call (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Last night, I opened the box:

That will work nicely with a different package I received a few months ago:

Saturday I will be installing these into my car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

I can't wait for the weekend (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif)

Dude ,

You must have been a very good boy this past year for Santa to drop this into your lap this early . (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

How much did that engine from Jake set you back and how long did it take to get it from order to your house . (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

I've dealt with quite a lot of crap the past two years, so Santa owed me.

I started the process with Jake almost one year ago. For pricing information, check out his website and/or give him a call.

HAHAHA!!!

Dude, congrats! I'm glad you finally got it! Oddly enough, I'm just planning to get your old Bursch installed this weekend down here. Next time I'm up there, I want to go for a ride!

You probably need to get some waivers made up...

I'm happy to know the old Bursch is getting put back to use (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Let me know when you are back in town and I will gladly be taking people for rides. By reading this sentance you release me from any and all liabilities physical or spiritual and it is also not my fault if you become obsessed with purchasing your own 2270 and this drives your spouse to leave you (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Should be nearly broke in coming as a turn key motor.

I certainly am loving my 2316.
I always get a kick out of someone aking what did it cost?
Rather what components did you get.
2270 Torquer
Looks to be Tangerine with nice muffler
Ignition???
Induction???

That's what we can guess the price with.



Heck the extras I have on my engine pretty much double what the kit cost.
Tangerine
All Mallory
44IDF webers
Aeroquip oil lines big ass oil cooler
all the labor of getting the tin straight and painted

I already had 44IDFs on the old grenade. Jake sent them to Art Thrane for freshening, so that saved me a little $$ which was promptly "invested" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) in a Tangerine 1 5/8" with stage 2 silencer and heat exchanger kit. While I was at it, I bought stainless steel fuel lines for the center tunnel and the new crankcase breather setup that Tangerine also offers. The 2270 Torquer won't work without that exhaust, BTW. The new cylinder heads really flow and need an exhaust that will handle the volume. I've also purchased a 2qt Accusump so that I can keep healthy oil pressures while on track, and a big ass oil cooler (Setrab 920 series w/electric fans). New gauges for EGT and CHT, new quad gauge for the dash (moved everything from center console to dash, EGT and CHT will go in center console).

And as long as I was doing all this other stuff, I took my gas tank to a local place and had it boiled (or whatever they do) to clean out all the crap and then it was repainted (more bling). New fuel pump. There was a problem with the low-beam headlights I'm still chasing, but that will be fixed too. I also need to rebuild/repair/replace my passenger outer door handle and the driver inner door handle. I'm seriously considering a JWest shifter.

Jake did the break-in on his engine dyno. He said there might be some fiddling with the carbs once I get everything together and depending on the weather but he will walk me through all of that when the time comes...
