Title: 363 sphinx. It's not a Bdt build.
Post by: trx363_Hunt on February 09, 2016, 09:10:32 AM

So I contacted Carlos and sent him the s/n off the cylinder and he said that it's not one of his builds. I also contacted millennium and they said it was sent to them back in 2010 from CPI. CPI didn't start marking cylinders until 2012 so they can't tell me who built the motor... So it's back to who originally built it.

Why not ask the previous owner(s) until you get the info you need.

The guy I bought it off of couldn't remember what the guy he bought it from said... I tried that to begin with.

That's the name CPI gave me and told me to contact him.

Talked to Nate McCoy today and sent him some pictures. Turns out it's a unique build actually. He said that it is actually a preproduction sphinx cylinder and that he isn't positive that it's his work but definitely a possibility. I'm still wanting to sell this setup to build a puma. What do you guys think?
