Just sent you an email. Maybe not the kind you might be looking for.

Dad-gum fellers...y'all are giving this old guy an unexpected education. I guess I'm the simple type and you guys are the educated types. The engine is a 1936, 21 stud, .060" overbore, Aluminum flywheel, 3/4 race cam, Fenton intake, Eddie Meyer heads, block hugger headers and the aforementioned...

What size jets are you using?

glennpm: Thank you for the details- just what I needed.

Would it be allowed to let everyone know about our swap meet at the Nashville fairgrounds? We have been doing it for 36 years on the first Sunday in February. I am the swap meet coordinator for the Stones River AACA Car Club and I want to just let everyone know about it by putting a thread in...

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you...I just knew somebody out there had my answer...and you did. Ordering tomorrow...
