It definitely sounds tuff. I'm sure it will have no problem backing that up once it gets rolling

Looks really good.


One very important word of advice though!!!
It appears that the fuel lines running from the regulator to the carb. are solid lines.
Make sure he replaces these with braided AN lines!!!
The solid lines will crack and break over time due to engine movement, even if he is running solid mounts.
Were the regulator is mounted, the fuel will spray directly on the headers, and will burn the car very quickly.

Please make sure you guys address this, I would hate to see something that bad happen to him.
