Paul;

     I hate to say it but it looks as though you were right. I am
begining to believe that Freedom-Motors is never going to produce an
engine. I have called and talked to Bruce Calkins several times over the
last two years and they are always 2 years away from producing an engine.
According to them it is practically mission impossible, yet I see several
engine manufacturers producing new engines all the time. I don't know why
they can't get their act together, but I am begining to think that they
don't want to. I don't know if this is some kind of a big money pit or
what, but I have just about lost all patience with them.

Thanks,
Mark

I've also talked to Calkins recently.  The 530 series engines have been "put
on hold".  The larger versions are supposed to be the point of negotiations
with a chinese manufacturer.  You're right, they don't seem to be trying to
get any "beta" engines out there.  Calkins told me that the 530 series are
intended as constant speed industrial engines and overheat with repetitive
changes of throttle.  They are air/oil cooled.  Sachs  and Norton made it
work under pretty demanding duty cycles.  I wonder what their problem is?

They are manufacturing press releases and selling worthless stock.
