Hey. Looks good. Keep up the good work. Looks like a nice solid ride. Is that a 350? Are you removing the intake to go back to the stock look? Keep us up to date. Jim.

Good idea but what about when you are driving around town?

Engine looks vey clean and neat, why is there a spacer on the top of the carb? What kind of air filter setup are you using?

I thought it was funny because I was doing the same thing. I had a barn on some property away from my house for a while. I did not want the tractor or car to get stolen. When I had the floor poored I hade a pipe put in the floor. When I want to secure something I screw in a pipe and put a chain through it and the tractor:

im using a k&n air filter inside an edelbrock air cleaner, i might be going with a dXtreme k&n filter with the filter top pretty soon if i get the OAI hood

i had to use the spacer to make the performer carb work on the stock manifold because the stock manifolds secondaries were much larger then the carbs secondaries but edelbrock makes that spacer so that you can convert it so now i dont have to wait till june to get a performer manifold i can get the 3711 i think it is and just put that spacer on it put the egr block off plate on it and im ready to roll

and yeah gow i have the same thing pretty much except not as nice looking i just bent a piece of tube i had laying around into a loop and dipped it in the cement lol
