Bob:
 
It was a good visit.  Glad you enjoyed the B.  I miss it.  But, the Alfa
that replaced it is fun too, just a lot slower.  Maybe after I finish
building the new engine for it it will be closer to what the B was.
 
Was planning to race the Turner at Moroso, opps, Palm Beach International
this weekend.  But, the new "old" HP engine doesn't yet want to go racing &
I've been too busy to work out the kinks to get it to feel right & no time
to do dyno runs.  Thing is really high compression with domed pistons.
Haven't measured it.  But, likely c. 12:1.  Old old 948 is 10.5:1 with
flat-top pistons.
 
Regards,
Norm
 
And, Herb:  Glad you like VR.  We try to make it the best we can.
