It’s always been scary fast and a lead foot runs in both sides of my family, I always did my best to stay out of the secondaries but dad had it set up his own way, where you pretty much had to stomp on it to get them to kick in.

The only thing I hate to lose with that Edelbrock is the manual choke. I guess I’m a control freak and use the choke sparingly.
I was thinking eventually going with 4.11 gears since “the brakes are good and the tires are fair”… but how much would 4.56 gearing take off the top end?


Sometimes you got to leave 'em like you found 'em.
