Well it was till I about drug the header pipes off on that test drive. Had to crank the T bars up. Hey Rob, while I have your attention here, I just got one of those Chinese Distributors View attachment 1715445500 and it says to use a coil with resistance of 0.5 - 1.0 .

This will not work with it?

All that means is to make sure you use a coil with a resistor with a half ohm to one ohm value. If that coil is not marked "USE WITH EXTERNAL RESISTOR" you need one that is and a ballast resistor between a half and one ohm, just like a stock Mopar ignition.

I had a 600 cfm 1405 Edlebrock carb that came with the car parts back when I got all this stuff, was told it was on a running engine. I bought a bigger one , 750 cfm 1407 from a member here. I had the small one listed for sale, but tried it on the car the other day and it runs good. So I'm not sure which one I'm going to need so I'll keep them both for know.
 
I think I like the no bumper look better. Put some grill mesh in the lower opening.

Use to drive semi and spent some time down your way in the winter and was in a tee shirt and people had coats on and complaining about the cold. Yea Al different from up top to down bottom. Getting harder for me to handle the cold but can't handle the heat as well.
 
Got the fuel tank and lines and other parts of the system all installed the other day. I also got a couple quotes on custom exhaust, and holy crap these shops down here are out of the minds on $$$$. Starting at $700 for duels from the headers back out the rear.:eek::icon_fU:. That aint happinin anytime soon. More than 1 way to skin a cat. Insurance and plates and I'm goin down the road. OH and a front end alignment.

For about $700 you can get 2.5" TTI Exhaust system with mandrel bends, H pipe, dynomax mufflers, bolts right in. Much better than any exhaust shop will do. Comes complete. In my opinion best way to go, used there stuff on quit a few builds no complaints. By the way Al your Bcuda is looking awesome,

Yeah, I guess I'll hold off on real exhaust for a while. Thanks the car is far from perfect but good enough for a driver/ cruiser.

I have graciously been entertained in Fred’s shop and subsequently fed quite well. Not to mention an adult beverage or two. But I gotta say there is no way Bisbee has 127 folks. We were at the tavern and there was only about twenty people! The Sublime One is mine!
