wow... cool.

speaking of the dual quad (are you talking about on your ustom
manifold?) - how does that custom manifold work. i know you said on
you site that it was having some problems, and i wondered if those
were carb bormblems rather than manifold problems, because i can't
think of a reason for that manifold to have many problems (maybe
because the inlet to the runners is perpendicular t othe carb barrels
- perhaps positioning them under the barrels would help, but probably
not much). i've been thinking of making a similar manifold myself
,and wondered what your experience with that other one has been like.

thanks, jon (sorry about all the typos - i'm away from m ycomputer and
i always have trouble with keyboards other than the one i've gotten
used to :)
