    You only need one carb set up with the choke operational. Also using one carb for ported vacuum signal for distributor.

    It’s Alive!!! Finished up the linkage, and buttoned up several other small pieces. She’s a bit loud. But will see where that ends up. Maybe some porters. Has a bit more pep. Super stoked. Lots of thanks to fomocokid. @Kellkustom. Did a lot of the work for me. [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Good old American engineering at its best! I’ve enjoyed reading this build/modification posts you have on your Chrysler. Looking forward to more in the future.

    Another Mopar on the road again. Huzzzah!! Now get a few miles on it, find a straight level stretch and do a top gear WOT 30 to 50 run. See what you get.

    Here is my dualled up 230 in my 46.

    Had a really fun social distancing cruise on Mt. Rushmore road last night. Took the ‘40 out and cackled her up and down. Then parked and showed her off while enjoying the rest of the rigs for awhile. Can spot Rusty Rockets ‘32 in there as well. [​IMG] View attachment 4640873 View attachment 4640874
