Yeah I hope I'm not portraying that anything is bad so much as what i think can be done to improve. AND AGAIN not that any of this makes sense but when did I ever do anything rational to a bracket/index car? (Although as Brett has said and Ken @ Indy has also mentioned, in as-cast form it has distribution issues.) But again I'm not willing to A-B-A to compare it to a stocker because it isnt mine and I'm sure it's better! lol The Universe has had other plans for me still but i did manage to mangle it more together and added a pic of basically the way it's planned to look AGAIN WITH SOME other things not shown. basically I'd go to press with epoxy in it as pic'd here. Doug has proven the Indy bathtub works in stock form no doubt. Many of us do feel it can be improved and not necessarily in the few different ways i have seen. I'll also say I feel confident a SM 2x4 intake on Doug's motor will make more power and go faster but, is that saying anything?
