Hey Fred,
Keith likes the RPM manifold only because Vic Jr.'s won't fit under the hood of most cobras. It does rub my paint a bit. I would not mind buying a new RPM intake from Edelbrock with the ENDURASHINE,....it looks great. (don't know if they have it on the Vic Jr.)Keith did state that my Jr. would be fine. Give up a little TQ for better HP up top.

The overdrive pulley is a good idea, with the high temps here in Ne. In the summer, I change to a 160 degree thermostat.

I do have a 100 amp alt. Sometimes with the old alt., after the car was warmed up or after getting on it, if I stopped for gas, she did not want to start so, I did buy a retard box for start up's but, haven't installed it yet.
