http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-4neDUyax0 alright first vid, just making a quick run, kinda shakey but the hard jerks are shifting into gear we started from a stand still. he points at the speedo at around 125/135 mph http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0GoeH4wbx4 and here it is launching at taking off down the road not to bad for only having like 1/4 to 1/2 throttle availble right now eh?

Great stuff! Did you build and set up the carbs and manifold or did someone else, i have the same manifold and carbs i need to get set up.
Made my own linkage out of br*** rod and ball bearing heims got a bunch of 2 barrels off various old 283's,bought some 49 jets from so cal carb to sneek up on the jetting i drilled them out then knew what i needed were 51's trimmed the power valve springs and put grosejets in the carbs and alcohol acc pumps(blue onesfrom quadrajet kit.Seems to be trouble fee so far excellent acceleration and bottom end just like fuel injection without the wires. 32]Great stuff!
