    In 1963 I had a 56 210 Chevy sedan that had a 283 with dual quad cast iron intake.

      I understand they were oem. I was referring to the big tunnel ram intakes.

    Tank mount looks very sturdy. I like the design. I hope you didn’t take my comment on your workshop the wrong way Mike. Over here in the uk lots of hot rodders don’t have a garage. Some rent a tiny one car garage. Your country is much bigger. Plus the car is a way of life over there. We have little boxes houses and cars. All the very best wishes from England. Hope Ali gets well soon. O the seat on the daughters bed made me smile I have my stash of parts in the spare bedroom.

      Oh I didn’t take it in any way other than sincere.
      I appreciate your support.

      Saw another clever bottle cover use - drill a hole through each side, insert a piece of tubing which fits your hand, weld around both joints for a body working hammer.

    I like your idea for the mount and your easy way of not spending money for dipole die equipment is genuinely a great idea and thanks for sharing I will be using it myself now that I have seen it

    • @ThisOldHotrod
      @ThisOldHotrod  6 месяцев назад

      Thank you. The gas tank is a 1953-55 Ford F100 tank. Purchased it from Tanksinc.com

      I’m close to firing off the motor. Just working on the carburetors and linkage now. There’s a lot of guys on RUclips and online using them and have had great success with them. I’m sure my setup will be the same. I’m planning an update soon. Haven’t done mushrooms video lately. Just focusing on the car and getting it to the race in May
