Dave has been working on that product for about 4 years now. Testing in his Skater and on the dyno. Looks like a pretty cool idea to me, and he's had quite a bit of success.

Dave is a super guy, and definitely knows his motors! His shop is wall to wall POWER...I think the 540s he built for me were about the smallest hp he had in the place, lol.

Even if Michigan gets nasty, Lake Char has to be 15 miles long, so you'll at least get a good run in on Char
