I just got a document from the tax board about the motor I purchased from FHO. 2 years later FYI. They want an additional 1700$. For international purchase.
I'm not sure how much money Spence poured into that motor but I know it was around $30,000 just in the heads/valvetrain. Sticker shock would have put me in the grave long before it was completed. - I might never have that kind of expendable cash but at least I get to play with this stuff when Spence gets it.
I don't remember how much Spence paid for import fees & taxes but I remember him trying to work with them to find the least expensive means. I guess when you've dug a hole half way to China you just keep digging!
