I'm not sure it was in the late 40's early 50's we lived in Jamestown.

No I'm not sure why you are having a problem.

I live about 30min north of Jamestown in Dunkirk. Until the 1960's there was some serious drag racing action at the Dunkirk airport, Don Garlits Raced here in his early days.

The engine has been out a long time. Tomorrow I will take the bellhousing and starter to my engine builder so he can install it on his dyno Monday. Tuesday or Wednesday we should be making a few dyno pulls. The engine is for B/SA with cast iron heads and intake.

We did not have a very good dyno session. We only got to make three good pulls before the water brake broke on the dyno. The plan was to compare the stock Cobra Jet 735 with the Quick Fuel replacement. We made the three pulls with the 735. 493 HP, 500 HP and 502 HP all around 5900.

I forgot to mention we made 502 hp on 93 octane gas and the timing was set at 34 degrees
