    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Hey !!! Pros have tried to kill me, I'm tough to kill.

    Actually, relative to the bore sized question, I am using the clutch side for the brakes, and the brake side for the clutch. I turned the m/c around backwards. This thing stops on a dime, so I suspect the bores are the same.

    Yeah, I know it isn't p/c to not use a dual m/c in todays world, but this is a '50 style rod, and I began it in the late '80's, when I was young and dumb. Now I'm just old and dumb.

    The car hasn't moved for 5 years, so when I get around to the restoration I might consider something else, especially if I put in a C4 to replace the stick setup.

    Thanks for the concern, and yes you guys are correct.

    If this is any help, I'm using '40 Ford front brakes and '68 Mercury Montego on the rear. I don't know how I hit it the first time, but the balance is right on.

    Hooter, if you decide to keep the manifold and run it, there is a synchronizing tool that makes it easy to dial in the carbs. Go to ebay and type in ...Uni-Syn..., there are about 7 of these units on there for auction today.
