Keith,
Thanks for posting something real and tangible on the Genesis platform. Many of us have been hoping to hear from someone who's really built one and used it.

Maybe you'll have some follow-up reports on quality, reliability, longevity of the Genesis block as it gets used and tested...


BTW, just helped a friend "reconfigure" one of those expensive DaVinci carbs on an SPF... It was set up for the 'ol Shelby Alu 427 motor that I hear came from your shop; not sure. It was Waaaaaay Toooooooo Rich for out here in California. Must be a thin air thing or something. Pulled those PV plugs, put some real PVs back in it, jetted down a few notches on Pri/Sec, down just a hair on the DC squirters, and wallah! Much better. Not sure why someone would jet so fat unless it was just for WOT Dyno (non-exhaust) testing. Anyhow, it made a bid difference in the performance in every way.
