Terry Burtz Engine-Vancouver

[Cajun]

Did Terry Burtz have his new Model A engine at Vancouver? I have not seen any comments.

We had the first casting of the Terry Burtz engine block at the Model A Times swap meet space and put it on display in the Model A parking lot at the Delta Hotel on Thursday afternoon. There will be some pictures in the next issue of the Model A Times.

Did it look promising? Could you tell the difference between it and a original Model A block?

The outside is indisguishable, however the inside with the five main bearings and thicker casting make the new engine very promising

That's good news.

I hear a rumor that it is going to be on display at the san diego MARC meet.

When I last spoke to Terry he said it looked very promising that it would be at San Diego MARC meet. I have started building the new Model A roadster pick up in anticipation of that engine so lets all cross our fingers that he gets it done in time.
