Before the Beast Cont.
It is now 1984 and the manta is looking like a wreck,
but it is certainly a fun car to drive.
This summer the shocks were replaced with Koni Sports, and some Goodyear NCT Eagles made it even better.
In the winter of '84-'85 the Maestro went a his yearly visit
to the U.S.A. At this time the car was parked at Moritz
for some major changes.
John Moritz managed to install some REALY big valves,
47 mm. intake and 41 mm. exhaust. toghether with
a bigger cam shaft and 11.3 to compression made this
1900 cc engine grunt and roar like a lion.
By coincedence they also found a direct steering
mechanism, 1.5 turn lock to lock
Yeah I know you need a little muscle, but in '85 and '86
thru '87 this car was FUN!!!
This is just a test to see if the table defintion realy works
