That is some Streamliner. I'd love to see that top 400!

I'd like to be there when it does too.

It was on display at the Barber Vintage Fest. How complete it was is another question.

There is a couple of pages of write up on it in the link. Not a huge amount of detail though. A pair of Rocket III engines, destroked and turbocharged giving about 500 hp each.

I guess some manufactures feel the need to tease.

It was at Bubs til they had an issue with exhaust manifold destructing--- heard there was a communication error involving temps to be seen from turbos, something about celsius vs fahrenheit!!!! .
Looked sweet. Jason Desalvo was pilot. He came by our pit and borrowed a sprocket for one of their bikes, nice kid!
