Default Proud Father of Twins

My old barn-find Galaxie R-code side oiler finally has been returned to its former glory, complete with a nice original MR aluminum intake and a pair of BC/BD carbs. Here is a snippet from the idle tuning earlier.




I think I'll smoke a cigar and celebrate.

Default The Twins

I hear they respond better when you take them out and soundly trash them on the road. Have fun this weekend, leave lots of rubber on the road at Hooters.

Congrats! You swap induction set-ups like I change shirts. How long until you get bored and throw on webers? That will keep you busy for a while.
