    spindles are GM B-body with a C4 rack handling the turning chores.
    Theres a few widgets and dammits yet to be completed, but the majority of the fab work is done.

    Doug,
    This thing is awesome looking! I tried to talk the wife into selling one of our teenagers to a lab for scientific experimentation so I could build one like it for the Plymouth but she said no. I guess I'll have to settle for looking at yours. Great job!

    The Intake ''' .... I mean the ''Colleteur d'Admission'' came in today.

    I know the carb may need some work. Maybe a new "needle valve" so it won't "Sap" so much power.

    WOOD that be an edelBLOCK? Prolly give that little motor some BARK! Make the exhaust strike the right CORD.

    This will be a Pro Charger unit, since I decided to sell the "ROOTS" blower. I don't know what I bought that blower "FIR"? I bought it from a guy named Douglas.

    Can't say I have ever had any left over wood if there was a blower involved.

    I'd like, with every "FIBER" of my being to shave every "SLIVER" of time off the "TREE". I'm gonna go out on a "LIMB" and say I problee' won't be able to "LEAF" this carb. the way it is.
