Buying a car before he could drive was the best thing that could ever happen to a 14-year-old kid. Hopping on his bike and taking a carburetor to the local German mechanic to get some understanding of how to make things work, changed his life. I met John Benton at the EMPI open house last year. He built a 1641 cc motor with 48 IDs and came in there and ripped it wide open to 7000 RPMs and put out some impressive horsepower numbers 160 hp for a 1641 when I interviewed him he came across as your typical old-school Vw legend. He owns a shop called Benton Performance and he's been busy for the past few decades working on Porsche's 356s 912s and 911s. He's a charismatic guy with a great attitude and a love for classic air cooled cars. His story about how he got an Volkswagens and how that evolved eventually into working on Porsche. I think if you meet him, you definitely know he's a get it done kind of guy but he likes to have fun. If you're ever in Anaheim, look up Benton Peformance, and go check them out.
