Well, I got the little truck I swapped off Frank seaworthy and insured enough to run around the block and up to the gas station. HaySUS! The little thing flies. I didn't ask Frank, I wonder is the speedo any sort of accurate? It's got a Wieland single plane intake and a lot of cam.... and given these runs surprisingly smoothly at part throttle and reasonable RPM. Up on the cam, it's insane. It's just scary fast, and even more scary quick. Next up is pipes from the mufflers back. I have to find someone to weld up the fuel tank I got, and get it in and plumbed. Then I can patch bed and have it painted. I think I'm gonna go with the same off white as my coach, and the same bronze accent stripes. Fun project.
