Delkron fatso?

I been looking at some of the Delkron fatso cases and short block available through DC Motorworks. Looks like a killer setup. I remember when the Fatvo's were being done by a few outfits and some of those have closed their doors. I feel pretty confident about Delkron though. There's a crap load of DTO stuff out there for the twinkie's and the prices for the cases and shortblocks looks pretty reasonable also. Anyone here familiar with these. Anyone built one? Any feedback would be appreciated. I had decided to stick with building another Shovel but this has really got me interested. It's not just another big EVO or twinkie.

From what I have heard, Delkron has or is using merch proprietary cases...

The design may well have been Merch's but the cases are manufatured by Delkron. I remember hearing a rumor a while back about a merger or takeover or something like that.

yes, they are manufactured by delkron...using merch's design.

well, as far as rumours go...Merch Motorcycles went public...got fucked over bigtime...Gerry Merchant kept enough stuff to keep the engine side going. Someone invested a good chunk of cash, and they moved from Alberta Canada, down to Ft. Collins Colorado...

So far, they've got 100, 114 and 120 and 125' in production. The 131, 140's are next. Then comes the 150, 165, 183 and I've heard that the 200 DUX is in the works.

The 200 comes in single and dual carb setups...the single is 200hp and the dual carb is 265 hp.
