George V made a marginal product back in the day. I personally met the guy and I felt the need to count my fingers when I got my hand back.

The 915 kit was cludgy, the oil tank would have had to improve to suck and he was a bad business person. He lived/worked in Lawndale and had a crappy machine shop with questionable air cooled valve jobs.

Think, AAmco plastic center consoles or whatever they were called, think crappy Saratoga tops that even though they get big bucks now, sucked then and suck even more now.

914s in the day, attracted the low end schiesters. Today, as crappy as they are, they are "Gurus". Some were classy in the day and still are. Few, but there are some.

George V wasn't one of them. I'm sorry to say he was from the same country my Dad was from.

I thought you could not buy Vellious products any more. I would love to buy his 915 shift conversion... But I thought they kind of fell off the map.



You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant.

Cept for Alice!

Was it patented? Improving on ideas is what has made this country great. If patented then he is protected and can recover damages. If not...Well, welcome to the real world.

I'd 2nd the opinion that Velios isn't a trusted source, and as a customer you could be doing some of his R & D. I had to threaten legal action to get him to finish a deal.

I get your point JP, but Velios is a clear cut case of marginal delivery from a shady dealer.

There will always be a sector of aftermarket buyers who will forego quality, reliability, ethics, and reputation for price.
