The "size of your engine" controversy has prompted some interesting dialog for us "lurkers" to comtemplate. Funny how we see things so differently but manage to coexist so peacefully in the world of

After hearing that lil' V-8 of yours sing it's song, just the music alone would be enough motivation to do it! For years and years I wanted to build a 3/4 size race car using one of those little Daim

Hey Dick, I love the Daimler idea! Seems like a few of those little devils reached the race tracks in Europe a few years ago. Well, maybe more like 30 years or so. Anyway, with the right shape, say a

As unusual as this may seem I was over to the machine shop to pick up 2 392 heads to bring home and work on and Al has a Daimler there he is rebuilding. Pretty coincidental I think. First time I ever

You know, I can't ever remember one racing back then, but if you search the web these days, there are a lot of photos of them racing back then. I should think that 375 - 450 HP ought to be within the
