    The audio on this computer is less than good, but it doesn't sound much like 2 different engines at all. They are in harmony. And those Strombergs are tuned perfectly.
    I can't help repeating myself, but this car is just simply fantastic !!

  13. Think you need to take the gal whos voice you hear to the drags. She sounds like she has had her nose stuck in too many paperback books reading them love stories.
    Like the sound of those motors under a load.

    Rocky i gotta say we must have the same thought process build a super bitchin car in the garage and then make test runs right out on the road in front of the house! My neighbors probly love me the same way yours love you lol. Damn that digger is so badass i cant wait till the hamb drags to see that car in person and officially meet you. I just put a new motor in my afx dodge and done the exact same thing you done only no one brave enough to video for me lol. Take care and ill see you at the hamb drags.

    Thanx again everyone!
    The engines seem to be happy right now, I can watch it again and again and love the sound of the engines. I'm figuring out that the Twin Engine theory is more about Torque than HP and I can live with that! Thanks V!
    Not something I reccomend but I had to see if I had the power and clutch to achieve my goals. Thanks Bender, see ya in August!

    Tim, I think I know what you are hearing, when the clutch gets hot it wouldn't allow me to get it in gear with-out "Cramming" it into gear, I've since adjusted it. Thanks for the Shirt "Thumbs-Up".

    Tonight I got out the shears and made up a couple of "Flash Shields" for the carbs. The holes you see in the tops are to tighten the carb top screws which double as the shield mounting.

    Very cool artwork for the shirt. Who did it? BTW good to see you testing the car just like the old days :D, I also felt the highway in front of my place was my private testing ground back when i was running my cars, now all the roads around me are gravel :(, Could be some tricky driveing to test now :eek:
