FREE DRAG RACING ENGINE
I am having a clean up here and have way too many good engines here that are not getting used . So , I have decided to donate a complete turn key 2276
cc carburetted dyno tuned engine to someone that needs it .
The engine is a full pro-stock style engine with a wedgemated crank , new carrillo's , magneto , exhaust , mega heads , clutch and 51 mm carbs . This
engine should be in the 230-240 HP range and will be supplied with a dyno report .
The new owner will need to have a car or be building a purpose drag racing car , need a really good transmission to handle the power and must have a
basic knowledge of how the VW engine works . This engine will have lots of compression and will require race gas and it will not have any tinware or
be street drivable . This is a serious engine for someone that wants to have some fun without breaking their budget . Please let me have your proposal
and I will get this organised , ROD. 02-42729920 .
More boost + More fuel = More power

Have to take my hat off to you Rod, that is a fantastic offer for someone. I wish I had more time and a spare car 
Just for those thinking of this, does it have to be NSW based so you can keep track of it etc
Couldn't imagine anyone else promoting the vw sport with this much generosity 
Well done, Kev

MMM! This would mean my OCDRBUG could run VW POWER instead of Subaru  and that means I could still race at SCG Meets now that Sportsbike & Prosportsbike has been canned.

Really need an engine for the Ascort project..... there needs to be some competition for the bloke in S.A. that drags the blue Ascort.... Have all the other light weight bits and bobs to go on the car.
Failing this i have a Karmann Ghia and a Manx that would also be budding donors!!

THANKS
Thanks to all that have shown some interest and that have contacted me and sent me in the proposal . I am in the process of sorting through some of
the issues with some people and I will let you all know who the lucky new owner will be real soon . I have had some interesting proposals and I wish I
had more to offer so I will get this one out of the way first and see if I can help anyone else out . I am hoping this may be up and running with in a
month or so , ROD.

Who ever the lucky dubber is, I congratulate you way in advance... Having put my hand up for this, I hope it's me, but who ever gets this amazing
opportunity, make the most of it.... Get it out there at every event you can, give Rodney the props he deserves, and most importantly.... Have a ball!

Whether it's me or not (I can dream can't I), I'd like to see it go to someone who isn't already involved in racing to bring more people into the
sport.
Cheers, John.

Well , Morgan called past last weekend looking for a free engine , so I offered this N/A one to him and he said that it wasn't good enough or fast
enough for him . He went looking in the back of my garage and found this one that he likes . If that wasn't good enough for him , he than wanted me
to deliver it , so here it is on the back of my truck ready for delivery , ROD.
