Got a good start on the roll cage today. When finished, it will have 3 sets of 3 point belts.

Good test drive [cl
Thought it was classic to see a cop at 3.23 minutes into the drive [ddd
Sounds good :cool: Did I hear a little stumble when you start to throttle up from a stop?

Well after trying to tune out the stumble, I was able to determine that the accelerator pump only delivers fuel sporadically. The electric choke hangs up a lot also. Looks like the carb will be replaced under the crate engine warranty in a week or so. In the meantime, here is short acceleration video from 1500 rpm to 5000. Off idle enough that it doesn't fall on its face.

The new carb is installed. Huge difference! No stumble, very responsive. No video yet, I have been busy pulling cars out of the woods.
