Title: VW Gasser Garage Period Engine Shop Post by: Lids on February 23, 2009, 00:12:50 am As I hinted at on another thread, I tipped Russell off about a suitable piece of period engine shop equipment that might come in handy.
Well I can confirm that he managed to secure the said item. What is it....... A Stuska engine dynomometer built for Empi, Riverside California. Its rated up to 200HP as it features a water brake.

Title: Re: VW Gasser Garage Period Engine Shop Post by: louisb on February 23, 2009, 00:33:57 am What you need is a period engine to display on it. I am thinking a 76 x 90 NPRs with dual 48s. Then put it in your living room! Neat toy.
