engine and drivetrain Who Else Has A Korman Stage 1?

[ewill2002]

The decision has been made to use Korman to rebuild my motor.  The Motor is to be Shipped this week.  Hoping to be extremely happy in a few months.

HOPEFULLY MY MOTOR AFTER

 

 

Anyone else happy, or sad with Korman?

 

Thanks in advance for any advice or opinions.

I had my engine rebuilt by Korman last year. I'm 1,800 miles into the rebuild and very happy with the results: it's super smooth and certainly more powerful than it was new. My engine is stock in the sense that it retains the original Solex, emissions controls, exhaust manifold, and cam -- my desire -- but it was balanced and blueprinted, ported, port-matched, and we bumped the compression up from 8.0 to 9.3 since it needed new pistons. Importantly, I believe that, even with my engine's stock breathing, they nailed the engine tuning -- it came home running perfectly! So, I'm a satisfied customer.

Good luck with your project,

Steve

I had a Korman Stage 2 many years ago, and it was a great engine. You will love yours. Korman's work costs top $, but they deliver.

I had Korman rebuild my 74tii motor.  It has been about 4 years now and it has run perfect.  I am extremelly happy with it.  As said above, he costs a little more but it was worth it.  I am sure you will enjoy the results.

I hope to see it and hear it running. I pass by Berts almost everyday when I go for a walk.

It's in the back underneath a silver fitted car cover. They should get it prepared by next week. I have the same wishes you do. I want to hear it and see it also.

I had them go over my car, set the linkage, tune the carbs, etc. I am extremely pleased with their work. The car runs sooo much smoother and I know I picked up more power. I've gone throughout the car, and they found little things I never would have.
