He had an R3/W8 engine in there the last time I was down in the bay area. That R3/W8 "was" Lee Saunders' engine that Fulco built. Saunders decided he didn't want the motor after it was built, so Fulco got stuck with it. I heard it can be had for around 80k. I live in Tampa, and I decided it was worth the drive to Delray Beach to Performance Only. Dan's reputation is impeccable, and he's a hell of a nice guy to deal with, too.
