RE: Magician
I really do like the sound and smell of a good running Fox. And you can't deny the historic importance oif the motor. But it's a little like the MGB-a classic that just didn't go out of production. For my money, if I buy a Fox 35, then a stuffer backplate, hemi head, ABC P&L, and Randy's crankshaft, I might as well buy 3 OSs, 2 Stuka Stunt specials, or a PA lite!
Of course, that's my opinion and that, with $2.75 will buy you a Latte any day of the week.....
BTW, Walt Umland has been advertising a ready-to-cover Magician. Not cheap, but Walt is a really fine builder.
