Default Re: Tak's Automotive in Denver Colorado

Although I haven't lived in Denver since 1995, I do remember Taks Automotive and his work, he was the "go to " guy for blower and fuel injection work in the 80's and 90's when I was there. Sorry, but I don't remember any specific "door cars" that he was involved with.

You should try looking Tak up on Google, or contact Lee at Ontrack performance in Englewood. Lee has raced in Denver since the early 70's...
Good luck

I tried to google Tak but to no avail, called "Corvette Collectibles"(big corvette dealer out there) and they said that Tak is retired and/or deceased.

Thank you so much for the lead of this other gentleman, I will contact him this week. If I can help you in any way with tracking stuff down up this way, please feel free to contact me. Thank you again.

Numbers were usually stamped above the timing cover on 80's-90's big blocks.

you are correct, sir! There are numbers stamped on the block above the timing cover, I need to remove the paint to see what they are. Thanks for your help, these numbers are miniscule (very small) compared to the stamping I usually see.
