    I'm sure it will be, we are starting a new C/G class for 2016 and they will get the same break.

    My Hilborn's were a snap to run right out of the box, just change one jet very simple to use to get the fuel dialed in with plug checks and the time slip's

    A squirt in each stack to start it up , and look out guys cause here I come [ LOL ]

    In my day almost every gasser had a set of injectors, so to be period correct that's what you need

    Hey the cammer is going to outrun the competition no matter which system you run. :p
     
  8. Got the front shocks mounted, made the cables for the flip front I used 10 32 heim joints and soddered them on the end of the cables. Also got the rest of the firewall build I'll post better pics later of it. I made some 18 gauge sheet metal angle to weld to the inside of the a pillar for support and to attach the firewall to. Turned out better than I thought

    I milled an inch total out of this manifold between the base and intermediate piece, so the carbs would fit with more space than a feeler gauge.

  22. Ya, Marc asked why the Grape Ape lifts off the throttle between every gear shift? I told him I wasn't sure, but thought maybe you had picked that up from Giraffery, watching him shoe a big wheel in one of his Toys R Us commercials.

    He's going to have to go to the court house and legally change his babies name to "UPSTAGED" when the Shenanigan is done with him.
