I have a few years exp. running fuel 392's in the seventies. If you have any questions, I might be able to help. My stuff had a 2 speed, not high gear only. But I used a 6-71 and a small pump. I also built cars for about 20 years.
Let's send this back to the top. I've been watching all of this come together via the internet for some time now. Still hoping I get to see these rides in person someday. You still with us Tim? If ever you are in the midwest, look me up. I'd be more than willing to help you guys out. I might have to look you up when I'm on the Left Coast this summer.
