    Axle question.

    Well guys the car is running and I have realized how badly gears are needed to get this thing to 7500rpms. With the 2.75's 1st gear can get all the way to 75mph and this is with a freaking 5 speed. I don't need to go 300mph, so I am remedying this. Ronstang is helping me assemble a 4.30 geared...

    Kind of like the title says, I can visually identify this carb as a speed demon, but I want to find some numbers to prove this claim before I sell it. I got screwed over on this carb last year, I gave the owner a chance to have it back and apparently he doesn't care. After a year I need to get...
