alfa of-corse, I guess we can pencil you in as it's not worth the effort? Sorry if my bringing up the word (supercharger) in relation to the TS engine brought back unpleasant memories for you.
Unfortunately everything you said made me feel all the more convinced that a "one-stop-shopping" site Solely for the TS engine would be a great idea. My very basic questions merely touch the surface. Yes, the BB's "Engine Conversion" forum is extremely helpful, but one has to wade through the, "I want to install a 3.7 liter V6 in a '56 Spider," threads (slight exaggeration).
As far as the parts problem is concerned it is my feeling if someone gives a supplier every chance to comply (deliver), and if they don't, then go on the appropriate forum and detail your complaints and name names.
Several years back I exchanged a number of emails with Jim Steck. Yes, Jim might be one of those you're talking about. I gather he is swamped, but I do agree if someone offers a product, they should a give a reasonably realistic time frame it will be delivered in - and carry through. I bring up his name in that he loves superchargers, and I'd sure be surprised if one couldn't install one on a TS and after some (perhaps a great deal) R&D, make it work like a champ.
Apparently I'm making people unhappy with this thread, but obviously it will die quickly if no one is interested. Meaning, no one Has to read it, yet alone reply.
