I wore my p/c’s out!!

I’ve been burning at least 2/3qt a week just driving around, a run out to the desert would burn a quart alone.

So I spent the last couple days putting new p/c’s on a good short block I had I’m my stash.

Also changed over to a single dual 40mm carb set up. Got everything back together and driving last night.

Bit more dialing in is needed then it’s time for a king/link rebuild on the front end.

Big THANKS to JJ for use of tools space and everything else you give me access to here.

We will build it if it comes.

Pat, do you have a bus ? I kinda remember you telling me you did ?

If so, Id love to see a photo.

 

more time in the garage is a good thing for me. Wishing the best to all in these trying times.

Got to remember to bring pit crew and back up vehicle on these outback travels. I believe this qualifies as “Too much fun” ?
