Could never get a car like that on the street legally in Australia!
Not even by a time consuming step by step procedure?

No good pic of the exhaust yet, but I have 4" collectors reduced to a section of 3.5" pipe, bullet mufflers, and turn downs near the end of the door. It's loud, but I'm kind of stuck because they are fenderwell headers and the only way to get the exhaust further back would be to go under the frame rails.... not happening. Back to resizing pics now....

Bigcubes window decal reminded me to post this pic. I had this rolled into my tin work when we back halved the car. Great minds think alike...

What part of town was this cruise at? St. Charles/St. Peters area? The West County/South County/Jefferson County scene is getting a little boring...need to take in something different.

This Saturday (and every third Saturday), there is a cruise at "The Lot". It's on the North Service Rd. between Cave Springs and St. Peters, just west of where 370 comes off I-70. Even more room there than at JJ's.

OK, so Raff was correct - this alcohol Dominator is KILLING me on the street. 2 mpg and I have been pulling the oil drain plug before every trip to get the excess fuel out of the pan. Best race carb ever, but puts out more fuel at part throttle than the engine will burn.
So I borrowed a C&S Aerosol 950 carb. It is a 4150 style and I have been playing with it on the bench. It is very simple to remove the secondary pump arm and linkage so the secondaries will not open at all. Would this be going too far?
I only drive the car at part throttle, so I just need it to start and idle cleanly. I'm hoping to maybe get 4 mpg and not wash fuel past the rings. Any suggestions?
