    flh4speed. When hubby brought the car for me the guy said that he was setting it up for the strip. that he put the edelbrock rpm performer package in it and it was producing 396 horses. I do not have documentation but i know that the cam is different because it has a wonderfull lope at idle. I do have cast iron through out the engine with a edelbrock 650 rpm carb and mallory ignition. all he said that he did was the engine. it has original rear and tranny and had no interior to speak of except the original dash. her name used to be buddy love . I replaced the interior, put in a shift kit, shocks with air ride, motor mounts, thermostat, secondary ignition switch, and replaced the rear seal in the tranny, and a new manual fuel pump after the last one cracked and sent fuel into my crank. I could not have done any of this without you guys talking me through. I truly love working on the car. My next job is to finish the body work and paint and to replace the 2.72 with a 3.73 gear.

    Henry. We love chesty here and are very, very proud. The next time that you might be up this way stop by and I will take you and your wife out to a great meal.
