Yes, I am on Ohio Rotories. I don't post there all that much.

Actually, I am not real kean on the return spring setup, but do like the fact it pulls straight back rather than at an angle. It is held on by hose clamps - simple. I have been thinking about fabbing something a little more elegant, but it is functional.

very cool similar setup to my car, what jetting are you running in the weber 45 and are you happy with it? And you didnt mention if its stockport or streetported... well I assume its stockport because you didn't say otherwise. Im still in the process of testing different jets with my carb to get it streetable. Like I said my fuel system setup is the same as yours, any tips you have are greatly appreciated thanks!

Tail light problem fixed. Alignment done. Just about everything is A-1 mechanically, electrically, and cosmetically.

The EP road race car has mostly been taking up space while I look at it and accumulate parts. I am selling this car because I have too many vehicles in the fleet and I can use the money for the EP car.

I have an ad posted in the 1st Gen Cars For Sale section. I may repost because it's an old ad that needs updated.
