THE REST OF THE STORY
I wasn't telling the whole story Gizz. I got alot of money in the heads. I'm not a motor head so truthly I DON'T KNOW.Got all the paper work. I told the guy i didn't want a racing motor. But he is about the most famous motor builder in these parts. Harden seats /guilds/bored 60 over/high flow water pump and oil pump with 8 qt. pan.[ Willard Obrian ] He is in the drag racing hall o fame and a member of my church. BOY O BOY it sounds good.

Your engine looks fantastic! FYI, I've heard that with the style of air cleaner that you're using, if you were to get a backfire through the carb that set the element on fire, you'd have nasty molten foam rubber down in your carb. I've never seen it happen, but I have seen one at a garage sale that was burnt clean through.

VIDEO
Can i do that ? Post a video ? Got the visor off for now Julie. Hoping to get the 5 star trim put on this week. I just can't stand it so that means taking the glass back out.You can bet it won't be that kid that they sent the first time. Got to buff the top out before i mount the center bracket. pic. of the aplachicola bay for ya. I remember you saying something about it and i go that way every week to see my grandson. ENJOY.
