They don't have hardened exaust valves from new,,So unless someone has fitted them or your using a lead additive ,You will quickly burn the valves out,,,

that little car is so cool!!!
Engine sounds awesome! Good luck with the project!
Thanks!
Awesome! I love the 2tone green color. When you get new tires, bring it over and take me for a ride please.
100 for sure. Would love to
