Who stuck that carburettor in my new stainless steel toilet?

OMG, that thing should breath like a Democrat sucking up campaign donations.

Too much engine for this Little Black Duck.

I could not get back from FL in time to snap any shots before Brian had it in the car. Have to do some trickery with the radiator hoses.... figured it out, just need to flip the BDR stainless hose around :cool:

That sure is a nice feature at Vintage to be able to see the progress on their website in the gallery.

What color is your car? It's hard to tell from the pics exactly what color your BDR is with those flash pics. Looks real good though.

Feels sort of like being a little kid waiting for Christmas, doesn't it. BTDT.

Delivery will come sooner than you think. Try to be patient.

Cheers!
Dave

Not too bad with a top and heater... one of our customers drove off today on his maiden voyage: http://www.vintage-motorsports.com/gallery/BDR426

... only a couple exits down I-91 though :LOL: He is planning to drive it to Martha's Vineyard next month though :MECOOL:

Instead of messing with the water hoses, put a surge tank on it to finish off the original look. One of those billet jobs from Kirkham would probably look nice, or Southern has them as well.

Did you get any dyno numbers on it?

Cashburn 10-27-2006 08:08 PM

Jim,
We have already done a SPAL upgrade which should cover it. For the really hot setups we have a new single fan (16") setup that is also nice.

Blittleton 10-27-2006 10:07 PM

Jay, I don't like to give a way too many secrets, but I'll throw you a bone. FE swivel thermostat housing.:D
