Oh, I get that. I'm just wondering how many things are out there left to use tubes??

Yes, it is! But I've got an offy 4bbl manifold I just might put on it...


It's mostly suffered neglect and is in pretty good shape otherwise. I did some research on line last night and found out they were a very well built boat.
