Not a problem Ken......I bookmarked the auction just to see what it ends up going for. Funny you should bring up dual quads.

A couple of days ago I decided to get some more done on the 57, and as I'm not quite ready to pull it apart to start on the Power Steering. that pretty much left doing the dual quad conversion.


With the Tri Power off and on the bench I realized this is the first time in over 30 years that I don't have at least one Tri Power car.

As long as I had the intake off I went ahead and pulled the valve covers and re adjusted the lifters.........this old man isn't made to stretch out over a fender like he used to......and the adjustable push rods are a PIA. The cast iron intake wasn't too bad but aluminum would have been nicer


A few trips to town to pick up odds and ends and it's about ready to go. I'm down to building fuel lines for it.......seems like the pretty fuel line I had for it won't clear the AC compressor. I ran out of time to do it today but I may be able to get out to the shop early and get started on it tomorrow before company gets here.
