Technical Contributor: For members who share their technical expertise. - Issue reason: Trev has owned several boosted fords and has really contributed a lot of info on them. His posts in the bike section are also very helpful. I think he should be recognised as a technical contributor.

The engine build would not be much more expensive than a standard build, the money would come from trying to find the right Weber set-up. people who try to take shortcuts have endless problems, the original items were no problem. You could get the top end power with a four barrel set-up but the bottom end torque that the correct Weber set-up produces is awesome.
