Blower Drive Service makes some neat electronic fuel injection systems that look vintage....I suspect they would be way easier to tune than a mechanical system that you have to change every time the wind blows from a different direction....

If you terminate them with a Heim, install safety loops....

If you terminate them with double-shear bolts/nuts, no safety loops are required.
Assuming a 7.50 or slower car, best bet for a scattershield would be a SFI 6.1, (2-disc max, SFI 1.1 or 1.2 clutch), shield has a life of 5 years before re-cert. 6.2, 6.3 is one or two years, depending on steel or titanium, before re-cert.
Had Super Chevy Show this past weekend. Never saw so many fat blocks in one place at one time. Teched a 409 '61 Bel-Air sedan, blown 496 1951 Plymouth wagon. Lots of nice Bowties in the car show. Best paint (best eyeball) was Cobalt Blue.Last edited by techinspector1; 10-25-2010 at 07:23 PM.
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
