You are from Michigan, what is whole story there? I know the first engine was the 6.0 motor in his SEC that went, but no one really proved he blew it up, that I ever heard.....
the second replacement engine was the M119 '92 SL engine, and I never knew why it was replaced, did it grenade? Did Axel Wulff in Pa. buy it?

What I DO know personally, is that his work is thorough, and he's probably the world's best expert on the 560SEC, and his engines like the M119 and the V12 are very clean installs, made to appear as though done by the factory, with all wiring harness, emissions, and other impedimentia perfectly done.

That said, he has a VERY heavy go foot, I know that. I tried to race him one night on the road to the SF airport near where his cousin Sunil lived, and he simply walked away from me at 100 mph.

I know also that he knows the cars inside out and has his own shop now.
It would be cool to see it.
