Looked at this link:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180534593858&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

Unbelievable!!

Someone paid real money for this too. Note the mounting of the blower??

"email me for band info"... right.

Check out the custom van listed by the same seller. Certainly would not want to change the fan belts.

Hmm. No coils on the big resistor "parasitic chokes" in the plate leads?

That fan belt installation would NEVER fly up here in Snow Country. I can see the first slush-snow of the season splashing up in there and freezing his alt pulleys up solid...

BUT he's putting out good Bird Watts, cawwmawn.

I'd  like to see what that SB-220 looked like after 5 minutes key-down at 4 KW, fan or no fan.
