Default Re: A new car to me

Performance Ron. The carbs can be touchy, but it DOES get with the program! When the engine was being built, he had Ed Eskandarian make the cam. At the time, his neighbor owned Performance Coatings Inc and he had all the space age coatings for thermal barriers, hardness, wear, etc done on everything inside the engine that could matter, cam, lifters rockers etc. The local race people have the same things done. When I stopped by the business, I was shown a bunch of Porsche ring and pinions being done. The coatings don't change the measurment specs as are extremely thin. The process is similar to powder coating.
