Finally drove it...!

Post by georgeramos »

My car has been shacked up most of the winter while my friend helped (taught) me with a bunch of stuff including timing belt, tensioner,all front seals, valve adjustment, single plane manifold, new carb linkage on the bigger carb, recored radiator, rewired radiator fan/thermal switch, added "t" to the heater hose to burp system and a few other things. Yesterday we got the cooling system refilled and I was able to drive it home (about 15 miles, in the rain). I definitely feel the increased power and it sounds awesome. What a happy feeling to drive it again. Cant wait til Spring!
