Her is the car as of 11/10/10. Aw fergit it. I've been trying to upload these pics for a half hour. They seem to be going to a place called "Manage Attachments". Can somebody tell me how to get them to go into the regular text like I have been doing for two years?
Well they popped up. I'm convinced that the Nazi sadistic tortures of the SS who escaped came to America and became software engineers. Working with this **** is excruciating. More later.
Butch, your car is just freakin awesome! I love the colors, too. I dearly love these race cars, because no two look alike. No cookie cutter factory ch***is in this bunch...! Do I spy Holley 5200 (or Webber DGV) carbs on your Stovebolt? How do those work out as far as throttle response? I know someone who has dual 5200's on a Datsun 240Z, and they are just ****! Tried every jet known to mankind, along with several other mods, and while the car runs smooth and trouble free, it is gutless beyond belief.... I've used a single on Datsun and Toyota Fours with great results, though. Have a buddy with an Earl Parker modified 5200 on his Ford 2300 Mini Stock, and it out performs the Holley 350 and 500 cfm 2300 carbs! Just curious how yours are working out?
Four Banger, The carburetors are Weber progressive two barrels. I got them from Langdon's Stovebolt out of Indianna. They worked absolutely perfectly right of the box. I'm so glad I got rid of the junk little Rochester one bbls I had. They were a bit pricey for my tightwad personality at about $350.00 with linkage. I think that price is what I paid. I do remember it hurt a little but , boy, are they faultless.
