he did a smallblock tonti, but that bike wasn't shown or mentioned.

no, thats a V9
Craig has built about every type of Guzzi... Loop, Spine frames, small blocks, a centauro, and a tonti sidecar racing rig. He seems to really love the brand. I know he collaborates with Joe W up there in Chicagoland quite a bit
Here's the turbo guzzi you are thinking of (well, I believe he has made multiples, but the is 'A' turbo guzzi he made)

he's working on a ducati now that has a supercharger sticking out the side 2 feet and out past the headlight in front. Guy is a bit of a nut, his instagram is a great follow.
FWIW the V9 turbo is for sale at about $30k
-
He makes interesting videos of his builds

right, sorry. my bad. too bad though that the topic evolved into a diversion about tonti versus loop and not about the museum, the bikes and this guy's mission.

The dustbin is also turbocharged.
