I met the guy that had that number 5a car at Road America two years ago. Seemed like a nice guy. I think he and his family/team were just getting to know this car, and he was making small improvements with each lap. This is no endorsement, but interesting to see the RA footage as I was there that weekend.

There's also one on Ebay $9k, saying for sale b/c he can't find a body harness. Listed in California, one of the best places to find a harness or have one made. Also says it is euro, so it would be cool & quite the deal if it was really a B38 in working order.

BAT one includes a built 265 Getrag.

We'll see where this engine lands, but I think anything under $10k is a good buy.

Does anyone really want an 11.5:1 compression ratio motor?
