Shake Shake Shake

I've got the thing tuned pretty well, as I have had it before.

Sounds fine to me. I'd tolerate that shake. How are your mounts? They get swollen and squishy after being oil soaked for 55 years. Ever tune the carb? Give both screws a 1/4 turn one way and see if it changes anything. Can always turn them back.

I feel like if I had some more firm motor mounts the shake might go away all together. The mounts on the car now are the ones that came with the Schumacher 273 to 340 conversion brackets. I bought them about 15 years ago or more. They are rubber, not the cool urethane poly locks.

Check out the photos, the driver side mount is sagging quite a bit. Passenger side looks good. With one side failing and the other side firm.... I'd say that would create a bizarre shake. Agree?
