I have Kontio Classics under my ´50 Convertible. Don't look that nice and badly out of round. Impossible to get them run like they should. Should shave them get them round. Kontio also has Vintage model which looks much better , but quality , I don't know... Previously I did use Cokers , well...

Congrats for the great results ! Awesome ride. What trans are you running this year ?

Awesome looking little engine! Great work !

Just the centers. A/F meter is way to go. Two channel is great but not mandatory.

In my 3x2 Flathead it was pain to change jets for primary(center), so I put those adjustable ones in. With A/F meter adjusting was easy and it has stayed same for years. No complaints. Your results may vary.... BTW , my opinion is that adjusting without good A/F meter is waste of time....

X 2 lean mixture or leak in exhaust system.

Bolt arrangement is little different. That's why original ´32 front shocks are so expensive at swap meets.

Thanks Pete and Ronnie to give solid opinion about this thing.Those should clear the myth. From two gentlemen who know thing or two about these things .....

Awesome Cabover ! You have done a great job. Is that sleeper from 60`s ? If the chassis is from truck how did you solve the steering ? I'm thinking that steering column is much more further front than in truck. Complicated linkage or what ?

Hmmm, daydreaming....Long way to come and check that thing from Finland...:D

Thanks "Petehoovie" for the pics of Karls Cabover. I wouldn't mind if that truck was taking space on my driveway....

Karl would you share few more pics of that cabover ? Looks like awesome shop truck...

And more lift causes ex valves to hit the head if chamber is that small.... although it don't look that small...

And the Yardbird era is great also...

Powermaster has made new alternator that have cast iron ends and is made for fan use. Both short and regular ones , even fake cut off box on top of that thing. Will be available during this winter. Looks great to my opinion. I bet its not cheap , but nothing is nowadays !
