Big time bog when you put your foot in it from a standing start............but after she gets going it's great. I did change the plugs to autolite 66 from 65 but thats just 1 heat range up. I dont think that is the problem.........

on the 4-speed conversion....I better check which way the wind is blowing today.

hope ya get felling better.....ya probably better lay off the power shifts for a day or two.....a couple of free revs would probably be OK though.
 
She's back in there....Denny's doing the final trial fit-me-up before final
welding and powder coating. New style K with smooth front crossmember
and extremely slight powertrain repositioning. No problems whatsoever but
what does Denny always say? "Perfection is not my goal; it is my standard".

Headers newly re-done in new gloss black ceramic coating. Very sparkly!

It's like the ding that gets put into the wood floor when you drop something....it is called " character"

My Duster ( and my wood floor) have plenty of "character"

Not to mention u r quite a character urself!! If my memory is correct, That perfection is not our goal, it's our standard quote dates back to mid 70's and the black hot rod! Loved it then, love it now!! Takin your advice and layin off the power shifts for awhile!!

good thing I keep this Duster under a cover so I can't see it while it is out of commission....I really want to get it back on the road.
