I ended up doing just that when it did not start the first time. The reason it did not start was the pin that holds the float was not in straight.

The frame mount takes a normal Poly . transmission mount.

It's hard to teach an old dog new tricks, however you are correct.

It took awhile but by carefully following the instructions we were able to get it done.

Thanks, it turned out well.

The carburetor is a Holly HP 750 double pumper

"Gunk" engine cleaner. I tried it on a small spot before dousing it with the engine cleaner.

I will have to check and se if I still have some around.

I have never been happy with chrome powder coat. It looks like shinny silver. For undercoat of candy colors it is great.

Great!

I am happy that the video was good for you

It most likely makes no difference but it mad me feel better.

Gevo

Is that good or bad?

The problem with that becomes power. These fans eat up power (the puller currently connected uses 18.5 amps. I am not running an alternator and the MSD box does not work wight under 9 volts

@@ThrottleStopRacing ok

I went to Empire Radiator for the radiator (they took a long time). That is not DW40 but window cleaner. Just enough soap to let the hoses slide on. You hit the nail on the head, there is a Sunoco right down the street. Have a good 4th

Thank you very much. Not sure it will lift the wheels.

You spent some time on that comment, thanks

@@ThrottleStopRacing Guilty as charged. You R a gentleman and a scholar and from what I hear.. the "Gearhead Whisperer" Live long and prosper 🖖

Thanks for the kind words.

I really do not know, use your phone and take a picture is all I can suggest. Working in the bilge is always close quarters.

The getting up is the hardest prat after that it is all down hill.

I would think that it was very important. If the shift cable shifter and trans lever all be in park and your cable length set that way, the other end of the range (first or third) could be out of range???

Thanks so much for the comment. Sorry for no video this week, but that is what happened.

Thank you very much.

That is for sure. Great day today, going to take the pool cover off?

That is great that you found the problem.

I do like their machine work and quality of materials.

I think this setup will do the trick. A lot of that going around lately.

What did you say?

@@ThrottleStopRacing 🤣

Thank you very much.

Optima batteries require an optima charger, but they don't tell you that because they cost $400. I have lost a few of their batteries because of this, but the 1000cca battery is $400 so I just spent the money and their charger is fast and made for their batteries, plus it's lighter and safer with the charger sitting in the trailer. We also prefer the yellow top battery for rapid discharge and charging just some things I have learned the hard way, as hard as it is to justify $800 for a battery and charger it's still cheaper than buying them twice. No at all knocking your set up just hope to help anyone watching because a dead battery at the track is no fun after all the hard work.

@@ronosga4391 The charger says on it front cover AGM .I called and talked to their tech line and they agreed this would be a good setup for what I intended.

If I remember right Optima batteries charge best with a variable rate charger, I know I had two fail and they told me to buy their charger. Hope it all works out well.

I like wiring.

I was thinking more like 5500 RPM for the shift and much lower for the launch. What do you think? Just starting to think about gears and rear tires.

Yes be conservative until she gets comfortable!!

Give yourself lots of copper to solder put heat shrink on it, don't cut or fray the line you are splicing into. Good luck.
