ebmods.com

The only engine builder with a proper working, repeatable engine dyno that produces black and white real world numbers. End mills, lathes and more jigs than you can shake a stick at. He's forgot more than most of these guys will ever know about nitro glow motors. No offense, just fact.

A few weeks from now you'll be able to buy a turn key, total modified, dyno tuned w/dyno sheet, broken in engine ready to pull wheelies for a smokin price.
