John: Please list the alternates of a Boston Bob engine. Seems that it is very seldom that anybody buys anything else besides a Boston Bob engine for a WB. Larry Chase bought an engine that had serious breakdowns after 12,000 miles. A recent post really blasted APV. Who are other sources of WB engines??? Just out of curiosity I'd like to know if a list member has ever bought a Jake Raby engine. I'm on several Porsche list and I have never found anybody that has bought from him.
