Thanks, this is the way they were mounted originally. I will have to see what is the most comfortable.

better wight transfer with the seats moved backBolted in the seats today, which took me several hours. However, I am glad I took the time to adjust them and do it right. I had to drill additional holes in the floor and brackets to get them to mount correctly. My FIL was shorter than me and there was no way I could use the original holes. I also moved the passenger seat back so they were both in line. I am very happy with how they look. One more item checked off the list.

That's totally up to him, but it would be a good way to get the carbs dialed in!
Drums on all 4 corners.....................Is that running drums up front or did you upgrade it? (too lazy to read 30 pages back)
I am all in for the dyno................correct break-in and tuning of the carbs, perfect!

Most people ***** about the cost of dyno time. I figure it in to every engine build I do that’s above mildly modified and it’s worth its weight in gold if you ask me. It’s refreshing to see someone realize the benefits beyond just knowing how much power it makes.I am all in for the dyno................correct break-in and tuning of the carbs, perfect!
That works!Drums on all 4 corners.....................
I want to do this right the first time. This engine is too important to me to cut corners.
