Pete. The Cain intake manifold showed up and in good condition. I did send you a snail mail note not long after receiving it but you’ve likely not received that note yet. First impressions are it’s a high rpm piece and will not perform well in the lower rpm’s but I’ll be dynoing a Y within the next week which will be an opportunity to run the first test on it. I’ll send you the dyno sheets comparing it to the Blue Thunder after this upcoming dyno session is complete which will document the manifold’s performance against another. Thanks again for sending the manifold. John. There have been checks and some cash rolling in and I’m keeping a list of all that contribute. I sent out a newsletter a couple days ago to all that have contributed so be looking for that in the mail. Thanks again to all that have contributed or about to do so.

Also, Ted, how is the financial help coming along? We need to back you on this. We tried a couple of times to let Jim accept our help, and he refused it. Now we can help you instead, and we need to do that.

Great. Now I wonder if I should actually install all the alum. Rebop parts I accumulated, or save them for posterity as "new-in-box" museum collectables.

Rebop is pretty much history. The sales fell off a cliff last year, and I had a problem finding another foundry for the aluminum parts. Went through three with very poor results. Lousy quality, and deliveries, but high prices. I have found a foundry that will and can make the parts, but still don't see enough sales to warrant the investment in time and money to restart it. I can't afford to continue to subsidize this, have to support a familty and eat first.

Pete, these manifolds etc were cast from anything alloy that would melt and often were put on boats due to the open runner design, i have ran them in the days when they were only 4bbl intake available here, as there wasnt anything else to compare them to, they seemed to go ok. I have several and must say, that one looks nice. We often joked they would turn red when you put your foot down as the fuel was coming through the casting, he, he. Regards bill.
