Title: Stolen in Kelowna
Post by: Ramunn on March 15, 2015, 11:58:05 AM

My 2017cc built engine from my locked 16ft trailer located in my storage yard behind Pick n Pull in Kelowna at the top of Dominion rd. This is my 3rd break in and I can't go on trusting anything being locked up at that location. The losers that use Pick n Pull for their personal free shopping......F - U

so sorry to hear about this. it's never cool when your space is violated and your personal property is taken. low life bastards!

do you have any pics and a description of the motor and the parts used on it? the more detailed the better, so we can spread the word and keep an eye & ear open to see if anything turns up.

There was no exhaust on it and the tin is powdercoated black. So I doubt the scumbag has a set of 90.5 heads sitting around so he will be looking to get a head opened up or buy a new set from somewhere and an exhaust system. George Ross built it a couple years ago and he painted the blocka medium grey.  I'll see if I still have the block# but I know it was an early one that was not universal or it would have been safely bolted up in the NOTCHBACK with some short intakes for my Italian weber 40's

The engine number is the most important detail.  When google'd it will come to this topic.
