Hello, about a three years ago i found a jag v-12 in an old machine shop and after years of asking i was finally able to purchase it. When i went to pick it up the seller had to ask, "what in the world do you want with this thing?" I replied "P-51 Mustang project". I have since caught alot of flack from others about wanting to use the engine but in my mind its nearly perfect. Being light-weight, powerful, forged internals, dry sump lubrication, and best of all its a V-12! How do you get anymore scale? I was cruising the web and stubled upon this forum about an outfit that is working over a jag motor, I instantly had about a thousand questions, now all i need to figure out is how to get in contact with this outfit Astec. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
