:::for Eddie:::

Yes.

I had the honor of helping him get it mounted onto the trans. Right now he is trying to get the 40 webers dialed in but he feels he needs larger exhaust and carbs. He's working on it.......

Now that even SA has seen your new motor Eddie........can I get my 1.7 built now? :( :lol:

Jake reckons the best carbs for his 2563 are 44s, so the 40s prob are a bit small...
What exhaust?? A1?

:::again, for Eddie:::

The exhaust he has at the moment is the bus header with a pair of cut down 411 preheat boxes with sheet metal removed.

He wants bigger carbs. He also wants better exhaust. He is like the rest of us, unlimited ideas, limited funds. :lol:

Update: Eddie runs low 15's with his 2.6 at the drag strip this past sunday. He is this close to 14's.

Read all about it: http://www.shoptalkforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=105393

This motor was planned to be turbo boosted but he has no turbo mounted right now.
