Henry@SuperTec

This comment is way overdue. Several years ago, Henry @SuperTec in Fallbrook California performed a complete overhaul of my 3.0l engine, converting it to 3.2l and adding Rasant FI system, and too many other improvements to list. My 78 SC is now a very quick 2350lb/approx 250-70hp extremely fun ride. I couldn’t be more satisfied with his work. As a post script, while driving it across country I had a very odd small problem w engine in Denver. A small oil plug located in bell housing let go. Shipped it back to Henry (it was past warranty period). He pulled engine and transmission, repaired the problem and cleaned up all of the oil that had spewed everywhere AND paid the shipping. All with absolutely no cost to me. Henry is one of the most stand up guys I’ve ever met. If anyone is looking for engine work he is incredible. I’m happy to share the details of his work if you privately dm me. I found the cost very reasonable and he did everything he promised w no hidden costs. If you visit him, you also get to see his pet tortoises, dogs and peacocks (not so tame).

That great story doesn't surprise me a bit, Jason. Although Henry didn't perform any work for me, he generously helped me with advice, direction and educated opinions when I was planning my 3.2SS project a couple years back. Henry always picked up the phone when I called and offered his best guidance, with supporting explanations to help me understand. And Henry always shared a funny story or two along the way. We laughed when I asked a certain very particular question, and he reminded me that these are little more than "glorified lawnmower engines" and not to get too carried away with the super-detailed analysis. After all the careful planning and great expense, that very blunt, humorous perspective from all his experience killed me! And he reminds us that sometimes our actions defy logic, as we simply want that "Wood Factor"! Many thanks, Henry- Keep it coming!

Thank you Henry..
I never have talked to him but I do read what he says and follow his free advice to build the 3.2ss that will dominate this Friday at Cecile Dragway, MD.
See you suckers at the track in your slow cars..
