Last time it was down it still worked for you West Coast folks. This time it seems to be down for everyone around the country, judging from the comments in RAMVA.
If Mr. Tuna just does this on purpose every once in a while just to feel wanted, well, it works. I need my fix. |

Brian, the Shop Talk "owner", told me that the server is the problem. It began to do the selective area downloading again, so Brian took it off the server (all the Forums) and is moving them to a new more reliable host. He hopes to have it back up within a week. Ciao, James "Superman" on Shop Talk.

Put it in a 914 Steve? What, you don't have a boat?
Guy who works with me bought my old '75 2.0 and is putting a Madza rotary in it. Audi 4000 radiator fits in the front so he can still haul a spare tire. He ran industrial hosing up the heater channels, says they come out in the front looking like that's what it was designed for. He's even getting a Rabbit splash guard to put over them where they outlet to look OEM. Single DRLA 48. He's still fabbing the exhaust, big tubes, thinks it'll be on the road within two weeks. He's taking photos to post. Wankel's German, no? Right at home. |

No, normally aspirated. He does have a second engine, though, that he intends to bridge port for extra weekend fun.
What a boat! Or do you call something like that a ship? Doesn't need any more motor, but sounds like it a little finishing touch, like maybe the Italian boat anchor, with all that finely finished aluminum...? |

Kuipo Was a sweet boat. But the fastest boat I've been on was Ted Field's It was a Riva 38 Triple 454 blown. (Ted had a race team for a hobbie you might remember them Interscope Racing.) She would do over 100,I water skied to Catlina And back in the race one year behind Her.I had a 200 foot two line to keep from getting asphixiated by the fumes.The Riva uses delta props only one blade is in the water of the three.The effect flatins the water making the wake airy which gives the skier a smoother surface free of bumps.This is important as your doing over 70 in the channel.Steve
