Back in the day I imagine it was a fairly difficult decision to figure out what brand name engine to buy seeing as how there where so many manufactures. Like now days when you go to buy a new TV or computer. So many to choose from. You have to study them all so you know a little about what your buying. Neat Post! Thanks Richard. I didn't see you at the Jan or Feb show. Did you make it? |

I would venture to say the choices of which engine to buy were based of what was available in your area, shipping was much slower in those days. If you had a local shop building engines thats who you went to see. |
