Need the numbers for the block (the second number will mean the year, first letter means the decade... c=6, d=7, so a D1 is a 71, D2 72, etc)

Whats the advertised CR on the pistons?

Good intake, I like mine!

Carb is a wee bit large, especially with the Double pumper, a 750 Vac secondary would be a better choice

The rest of the components are all quality parts, but it would help to have the cam number or specs
