Looking for a second DeLorean. $15k

... My point is that a properly maintained / loved / cared for all original car can be just as reliable / dependable as one that has had every single upgrade under the sun done to it, and maybe even more or so....

I've heard rumors that upgrading to carburetion is more reliable than OEM K-Jet.

Personally, I'd say that's highly debatable. But I'd definitely agree that carburetion is much easier and cheaper to trouble shoot if/when you experience a problem with it (unless your name happens to be Farrar).

Be nice....

Goodness only knows what's going on with #2613, but I do know this: if core health of Farrar's block can be verified, everything else is just window dressing. Core engine permitting, the car *CAN* be made to purr like a contented kitten [/gratuitous cat remark for Farrar's benefit]

Of that, I have no doubt!

That boy really needs to do a compression check!

Should probably also pick up a capillary oil pressure gauge to verify the bearings are OK.

My Boo purrs more like a Lion with the headers and thrush turbo mufflers. I think it even sounds smoother than the K-Jets I've seen. No idle hunting. Just smooth carberated goodness ! Starts up every time right away, no worries with the 2100 on there.

LOVING IT !

Picked up my AMC parts car this afternoon. Has a 2100 sitting on top of its AMC 304 block (not just Ford used them: AMC and Chrysler also used 2100's).

Just out of curiosity, does it have your LCA's and door struts installed?
