soooo... when's the IDA vs. Sterling carb going to happen???







i'm waiting....

My engine rebuilder painted the engine, I didn't do it. But I think is acrylic paint.

Dude don't even start... you were sitting in the SA all day right next to my FB, at SS7. All you had to say was the word and we would have gone do it foo!

d0 Luck

it's not my car
but i will tell you this, the 12a IDA is no slouch at all
and how come you turned down wackoricer's offer for direct fire?

cdrad51

I believe you. The SA does look fast. Maybe when Dave's knee is better we will be able to finally go.

On Wacko and direct fire, I just gotta take a break spending money in the car. I'm broke! I'm spending $60 a week in gas alone!

There is always the increase in gas mileage with direct fire to consider.
