Looking good Biker, and great here she's still running like a Champ as well
Thanks man! Your carb work is flawless. Cruise AFR is likely a tad on the lean side because I jetted the mains down a bit, but if I go up on them and restrict the power valves a bit more, cruise and full throttle should be perfect.

It's super responsive, I can casually accelerate in highway traffic without downshifting from 5th and still easily pass trucks etc. Dropping down to 4th or 3rd to pass makes a loud screaming noise from the passenger seat.

Well, yours is going to be an absolute beauty when its finished. Getting close now!
Thanks, I appreciate that. It hasn't been a journey as long as others on here, but it is very exciting to see that we are at the cusp of it being completed with the exception of a few upgrades in suspension.

Just a WAG, but I believe that screaming noise has something to do with the seat spring not liking the compression factor. ...jus sayin. LOL!

Nice looking car! Which instrument cluster did you install?

Thanks,

Thanks! The gauges are made by Speed Hut, and the bezel is made by Keith at Custom Works. I bought everything wired and assembled from him a few years ago. GPS speedo ia nice I have a large blank spot where the vents would be on the right, just paralyzed right now as to what gauges to put in there.
