  5. "SP" dates back to the 50's. Walt Knudsen's business was named Speed Products. He cast various speed parts for flatheads. The SP tops came from his patterns. The repops available today are copied from an SP top by Gene Scott. Hence the name "Scott Top" has no connection to the original Scott top with the tubular intake arrangement manufactured by Scott Engineering.
     
  6. Thanks dean, looking for close up pictures of sp tops in use, tons of pics online of them mocked up... but I am looking for close up pictures of in use ones.
     
  7. Find a picture of the engine in Roth's Beatnik Bandit. It used two 97's with SP Tops on the blower.
