Actually, the first half, home to a show in Gnashville. First real test of the recored radiator and rebent carb linkage. We attacked Monteagle and the coach walked over it like it wasn't there. 50 - 55per with the Mousetoad clipped on behind. Temp went to quarter scales, the DigPpanel showed 175 = 180 for trans and engine temp. The back two barrels open nicely when it's floored. The fan clutch turned on about a mile into the hill, turned off after about a half mile of the flatland at the top. If it goes home Sunday night as well as it came up here, cooling and vapor-lock will be declared healed. First 238 miles burned 25.0 gallons of no alcohol....9.52 mpg towing with the cruise set at 2500.. I'll take it.
