PHIL M ENGS full name?

#1 PostAuthor: Gus » Sun Oct 27, 2019 6:35 pm

Evening gents.

I have a racing rotor cover for fitment without the rotor being fitted.

It says on it:

PHIL M ENGS

For the life of me I cannot remember his second name is it Manzanera or Manzerno or something like that?

Help would be greatly appreciated

Cheers Amigo's

Yes, the late Phil Manzano.
I had one of his big valve cylinder heads fitted to my Moto Martin Z1 in the 80's. The porting on it was sublime and worked really well.

Jaun Manzano runs the bike section of the Brighton speed trials and is still a VJMC stalwart.
