Re: speed parts on the banger
Can't get over how nice your car looks. Almost wish I was painting my 30 pickup black, with white walls.

Wow, what a nice/clean setup/application ! Is it an easy job to set/synchronize the two updrafts? Looks as they are both opened at once...as in not progressive. Can such a setup practically be made to do well with 'progressive' setup or no? |

Re: speed parts on the banger
We just released a 1928 Roadster Pick up back to the owner after repairing some problems. It has the kind of speed set up- B engine, Schofield head, twin down draft carbs. The little truck runs like a rocket. The owner had it as a teenager. Way tooooo fast!! I had it at 80mph, and there was plenty of power to go. Like I told the owner, you're outrunning the capabilities of the vehicle, brakes and all. Buy a 60's car for some speed and fun, keep the Model A's for an easy Sunday afternoon ride through history.

Re: speed parts on the banger
Here is a photo of the late "Speedy" Bill Smith taking us on a tour of the Museum of American Speed in Lincoln NE. There is one whole floor of this museum devoted to aftermarket performance for Model A's and Model T's. This place has to be on a car guy's bucket list! There were over a 100 speedster at the reunion this year. My Model A powered roadster put out 60 HP at the rear wheels on a dyno run at this event.
