Hello all
Like many of you, I've been following Lincoln's "Resurrection" thread closely. Sadly, as Lincoln himself aptly descibed his engine, it's a "train wreck". Any of us who've gotten to know Lincoln here on Pelican know that he's one hell of a nice guy and certainly doesn't deserve such felonious and unforgivable treatment. For that matter, who does?
When I look at the photos Chris has taken during Lincoln's engine disassembly, I can't help thinking that there but for the grace of god, go I. After all, few of us on the Turbo Forum are sufficiently knowledgable to know exactly what we're getting into when we hire a tuner/engine builder for these old beasts of ours. What is abundantly clear in Lincoln's situation is that sometimes it can be a real roll of the dice.
I hesitate to restate the obvious here, but I thank my lucky stars that I had the good fortune to find TurboKraft. I've said it before on this thread, and I'll say it again now: Chris Carroll and his guys are extremely intelligent, highly experienced and totally honest. People like Chris are all too rare, and they need to be rewarded. In this case, although they can't fix the pain, they can and will make Lincoln's 930 problems go away.
If any of you ever have questions or concerns about working with TurboKraft, I will be more than happy to talk with you at any time about any aspect of my experience with them. Like me, you might just save youself a lot of grief.
Tom
